Its a little misleading. Houston is high (the list I saw had Houston at 45th) — but Houston suburbs are very low (Sugarland is 389th, Missouri City 365th, Pearland 359th).

Sugarland isn’t served by HPD is it?
Houston’s crooks can still take the 59 highway into well-to-do Sugarland to commit crimes.
Houston has the crime problem, not the suburbs. Why is that?
