Actually, RK, I would argue that in some areas violent crime is so high it isn't being reported at all.
%80 of the US live in or near cities. I cannot find the percentage who specifically live in cities, but I believe that many crimes in cities go unreported. We hear about the increase in the homicide rate, but for every homicide, how many other violent crimes are also on the rise?
