I doubt London's crime has become so bad that it could be comparable to, or (as you suggested) worse than New York City's? This is despite New York's impressive decrease in overall crime (especially violent crime).

London and Paris should both have similar incidences of delinquency, which I doubt would be out of the ordinary for most of Europe's major hubs. I'm actually fairly certain that I read somewhere on the net, Glasgow being western Europe's most violent municipality?

At the end of the day though, in the western world, none of them got shit on (post-Katrina) Nu Awlins mayne. It's been ranked in the top 5 "world's most dangerous cities," the last four years runnin'.

There was an overall decrease in violent crime in 2009 (estimated at roughly 64 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants), down from the ridiculously high 2006-2008 figures―81 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants; 95 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants―those were (of course) the respective numbers.

The "Big Easy"

This was by far the best episode of the History Channel's Gangland series.
