- brutus1213 4y agoMy rental car got broken into early evening in Palo Alto last year .. just behind the nice restaurants on University Ave. I think the crime increase may be a bit more defused.

- CWuestefeld 4y agoYou seem to be implying that it's right and proper for cities to have high crime. Why is that?
- therealcamino 4y agoThe poster is only saying it is typical that crime in cities is higher than in surrounding suburbs, in the US. They didn't say anything about "right and proper" -- that's your spin.
- nkozyra 4y ago> You seem to be implying that it's right and proper for cities to have high crime. That's a really odd reading. From my vantage point it looks more like anecdotal evidence from within an area with usually lower crime rates and attempting to extrapolate to the larger city/ies. I don't see a value judgment at all.
- vineyardmike 4y agoI'm not the OP but I personally would imply that a wealthy and low density area would have a lower rate of petty theft than a dense and urban environment full of a diverse group of people (with diverse incomes and diverse needs). Not that it should have, but that it can be expected.
