You would have to compare the reporting rate also. No idea what it might be in Orlando. In San Francisco I expect it's now low: I'm at two physical assaults in San Francisco and there was no point in reporting either (countless verbal but that's not "violent crime" classification). And the recent (news) reporting on robbery makes it doubtful that much of it gets (police) reported either.

Then again what surrounds Moscone is mostly not "violent crime" as per this classification.

Edit: clarified news vs police reporting

But you’re way less likely to get stabbed near the major conference hotels around Disney World.

Why are you comparing these things?

Is anyone talking about the state of Conferences in Orlando, FL?

Yeah, it has been in the news repeatedly in the past few months, although for a different cause.
