One of my goals--is to work to retirement and move from the Southeast to the Northwest!! Why? It would be a move to a racially homogenous,financially stable environment where the statistical probablity of such violence is infinitesmally smaller than the present societal environment I live in--no bias here but the situation is what it is--
Interesting and possibly somewhat idealistic view of the "Northwest".
Crime is, of course, reported very differently in small communities than it is in large ones. But I get your point.
By the way, in a 20 mile radius of my county seat {the county has 9,000 souls}, we have had 5 reported murders in the last 3 years. Not Dodge City, but not Mayberry RFD, either.
