Turns out that the safest places to be are smaller metros, not the suburbs of large metros.

That still shows that the burbs of big cities are two and a half times as safe as the cities themselves.

I do not think inner cities will suffer like they did in the 70s and 80s but the really good 21st century run they had until recently may be over for a good while.
