Or how about this one. Los Angeles compared to my old home town of Orange, CA. Like I said earlier, if I could afford to still live there I would.

I had no idea I'd stir up so much anger here by posting some crime facts in regards to comparing *major* cities crime statistics.
Clearly you two and others here did not like the fact that California's largest city, LA has considerably less crime than most other *large* cities in other states.
It's revealing to see those that are annoyed that places like Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Las Vegas, Minneapolis, Oklahoma City, Indianapolis, Miami, Richmond Virgina etc etc etc all have more crime per capita than Los Angeles, Cal.
Some have been so annoyed by the truth here, they've accused me of "Skewing the facts" yet the charts and statistics are not mine. One even suggested that the stats being provided are just some small industrial area in downtown LA where no one lives. LOL!
You guys are a kick!
