Nice to visit, wouldn't want to live there.

Did I mention it's the murder capital of the United States?

Meh. Yes, sure, by statistics. But those rates come from neighborhoods that most likely don't have a lot of six-figure salary tech workers in them.

It has a lot of murders but the QoL crimes seem to be significantly less severe than they are in San Francisco.
