Small towns tend to have less crime.

*Awaits BRTD*
Tend being the proper word here.  The town of ~700 residents 10 miles east of here has a higher murder and violent crime rate than even "Murderapolis" in its crime heyday of around 1990-1995.

But that's what happens when you mix meth, gangs, and other drugs with old, decrepit federal tract housing on an Indian Reservation.  I can't remember of it's Tract 28 or Tract 33 that are the worst.. but a woman I know came home a couple months ago to a crime scene in her front yard where a man taking his young daughter for a walk had been shot in the back by some gang members that drove by.

Of course someone like BRTD has never heard about this because Minnesota ends at Brainerd in the Twin Cities.  To them, Bemidji is some town in Canada.

The nicer ones tend to be more remote.  Milton, WA, has only five thousand people, yet from what I hear it isn't exactly too much of a step up from nearby Tacompton.  Big Bear City, CA, has a similar population, yet from what I've heard it's a pleasant community.  The difference is that one, the latter, is more remote.
