Breaking down per capita is the most important thing you can possibly do, it’s the opposite of “doesn’t change anything.” Hey did you know there are more murders in Europe per year than in Chicago? Europe is more dangerous than Chicago!! ^ That’s why per capita is the most important consideration. (Another problem with comparing cities directly is the borders of city limits and metropolitan statistical areas but that’s a whole different topic)
