Alot of u internet bloggers are to fooled by murder rates to much , yall need to nderstand nyc is a huge city , 8 million ppl so its pretty obvious u have less chance of being a victim , but when we talk about crime and ppl who do them and ppl who are victims of them , i will have to say l.a is safer , only because its always been said that l.a is safe if u dont make yurself look like a gangmember , in nyc gangs isnt even the reason ppl get murdered, in l.a more then 50 percent of their homicides are gang related , how is that dangerous????(unless u a gang member off coarse)

Where do you get that info? Here are the homocides for 2009 so far. I don't see anything that backs your assertion.

How about you fix your links. As someone that has lived in both cities I disagree with you completely.

I'd think NYC would be. LA might have been safer in the 80s, but NYC has improved a lot and LA's gang problem took of in the 90s and hasen't improved a lot.
