44 transgender people killed last year.
19,000 people killed last year
0.6% of the population is trans according to wikipedia.
So we should expect 114 trans murder victims if they had the same rate of being a victim of homicide at the standard population
Looks like they're safer.

Also I said about as safe. Your risk of being involved in a homicide is ~1%. You'd need to be at a much higher risk of being killed before this impacts your overall safety.
