it's basically because the cities are so small, the statistics are skewed. Especially for Ocean City, since it receives a lot of tourists in the area during the year.
So if someone murders or rapes someone in Ocean City during the summer (when there's around 450,000 people on any given weekend), it doesn't include the larger population, but the population of the people that actually live there year round, which is only like 12,000.
