<p>New</a> York is ‘safest city’ as murders fall to record low - Times Online</p>
<p>It’s been the safest large city for a while now, but the murder rate is also the lowest it’s been since 1962. It started to climb in the '60s, peaked in the late '80s/early '90s, and has fallen since the mid-'90s.</p>
<p>thanks for telling us what we know columni</p>
<p>^whats with the attitude lol
i don’t think every prospective student knows this</p>
<p>I didn’t know this! And it’s very reassuring :)</p>
<p>Let’s all change this around though : “New York City, despite a sharp economic downturn” ;)</p>
<p>ive known nyc is quite safe. at many times i have felt safer there than in upstate. it is becoming quite the drama up here.(sorry for a lack of grammar im on CC mobile)</p>
