Walking in Amsterdam isn't my favorite; as you have alluded to the cyclists there have long since grown tired of stoned tourists wandering into the bike lane and don't yield in the same way as in other cities. But compared to the US, where every street crossing requires dashing across 4-8 lanes of traffic in the 20 seconds allotted to me by the Car Gods... there is no comparison in terms of subjective or objective danger.
