It is #8 on that list if you sort by homicide rate though. I'm not saying that makes OP's comment accurate as they did just say "higher crime" and not specifically homicide rate. But I do believe that blending murder rates with property crime rates gets a little muddy. The only "skyscraper city" that the article mentions that ranks higher in homicide rate is Washington D.C.
