Per Capita is the proper measurement.

“Per Capita is the proper measurement.”

I’m not quite sure how one city is figured for a percentage when one is so much bigger than another basing the measurement when that deflects the amount of users as less. Half of the city of New York, 18.8 million, is bigger than the whole population of Chicago, or Huston, or Miami, or Philadelphia. So it doesn’t reflect the amount of users in a city, it actually lessens the information. So using New York or L.A. as a point of information doesn’t tell the whole truth whether there is a drug problem. If they are going after New York then the article is redundant. If it’s that much bigger, then it will have a bigger use. But maybe less than the percentage of other cities.
