    Some place not being safe is defined as greater than n rate of insert list of bad things per capita.

    For most folks 100 in 100k murdered annually is pretty unsafe whereas 5 is pretty safe.

    But even if it were 1000 in 100k the other 99k still living could argue its not that bad!

    You basically can’t go to almost any population center without what the civilized world considers unacceptable risk whereas I can stroll through the “bad” part of my city at 2AM and mostly risk seeing gross people doing drugs.

    Mexico is objectively unsafe. Some parts of states are too like st Louis
