New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Chicago are all 'crime clusters' so your argument 'negates' nothing.

It always pays to know the facts before you go spouting off. You'd be surprised to learn that the crime rate is lower in NYC than in Mobile.

Mobile, Alabama has a Relocation Crime Lab Index of 212 which is a higher crime rate than the national average

NYC (Manhattan), New York has a Relocation Crime Lab Index of 156 which is a higher crime rate than the national average

Of special interest to women the incident of rape per 10,000 is 59 in Mobile and 19 for Manhatten. You're better off in NYC ladies.

FYI, in the interest of fairness, I chose Manhatten because it's the population center of NYC. Queens had a much better crime rate and the Bronx had a crime rate comparable to Mobile.

Seems like most of your bigoted opposition to mass transit is born of ignorance.

"Seems like most of your bigoted opposition to mass transit is born of ignorance."

Not really. I wouldn't want to live in Mobile any more than I would any other city. I simply don't like the urban life and I don't like mass transit. I've riden it and I much prefer my truck.
