I love all the replies of "I used to live in NYC" or "I just visited"....yeah hoss, we get it, your perspective invalidates every crime stat, DA impotence, and shortage of police/quitting issue that NYC has currently.

only to 4 and 5 star manhattan hotel employees who had to clean the hotel roomsI thought the migrants were scary, too? This makes NYC safer according to everything I've read.
But they're not afraid to be in Manhattan otherwise? This is confusing. Who am I supposed to be afraid of, again?only to 4 and 5 star manhattan hotel employees who had to clean the hotel rooms
i guess when they have free rooms at 5 star hotels, the fear goes away. they get booted from the complimentary room and board and have to pay their own way, and well i guess the fear is real, hence they are canada bound..But they're not afraid to be in Manhattan otherwise? This is confusing. Who am I supposed to be afraid of, again?
We all know how scared you areafraid or just dont want to go to a cess pool? I see dog crap on the sidewalk, i am not afraid of it, i just dont want to step in it so i walk around it.
kind of the same concept here.
if you want to go, no one is stopping you. have fun. why are you worried about what strangers think of nyc? you dont even know these people.
Maybe if you had a heroine with you, your fear of being in the company of minorities would lessenwell if you want good meth or heroine, you got to get your feet dirty and go slumming.
It’s what apparently the nypost is telling these dopesNobody goes to NYC anymore. It's too crowded!

I never said to not visit NYC, I just said that you are at a higher chance of having an act of violence happen to you walking down the street in NYC, then you would doing the same thing in Morgantown, WV.NYC has certainly seen a bit of an uptick in crime the past few years- but it is still not as dangerous as the perception. I lived in NYC for more many years. I moved just across the river about a decade ago. It was quite safe when I lived there and it is still pretty safe.
The most concerning issue in NYC has.been the increase in people being pushed onto the subway tracks .You really have to be mindful of who is around you when you are waiting for a subway and be sure not to stand close to the edge of the tracks. Still, the likelihood of getting pushed onto the tracks or being attacked in any way while in NYC is very low. Just stay aware of your surroundings and avoid the more dangerous sections of the city.
I take my kids into the city to eat and see shows and go to museums quite often. There is no city in America that comes close to offering the amount of world class restaurants, shows, museums, shopping and sites. Plus, there is no urban setting quite as magical. It has street after street of beautiful architecture and wonderful diversity. The city may seem like one giant metropolis to visitors, but when you live there you see it more as many smaller neighborhoods stuck together -one after another- each with its own wonderfully unique experience.
Even if you don’t see yourself as someone who would want to live in NYC (and that’s fine), you do not want to deprive yourself of the opportunity to experience and explore what might just be the most spectacular city on Earth made up of must-see neighborhoods: Harlem, Upped East Side: Upper West Side; Columbus Circle, Central Park, Lincoln Square, Theatre District/Time Square, Midtown, Hell’s Kitchen, Garment District, Koreatown, Flatiron. District, Chelsea, Gramercy, Union Square, Meatpacking District, Greenwich Village, East Village, Little Italy, Chinatown, Nolita, Noho, Soho, Tribeca, Lower East Side, Financial District, Battery Park - and that’s just the Manhattan borough. There are also so many amazing places to visit in Brooklyn (Williamsburg, Cobble Hill, Carrol Garden, Park Slope, Dumbo, Brooklyn Heights, Green Point, Prospect Heights; Bay Ridge, Bushwick). Even some pretty cool neighborhoods in the Bronx and other boroughs.
No place makes you feel alive as much as NYC.
My response was in no way meant as some sort of rebuttal to your post. I’m fact, I don’t have a clue how safe Morgantown is.I never said to not visit NYC, I just said that you are at a higher chance of having an act of violence happen to you walking down the street in NYC, then you would doing the same thing in Morgantown, WV.

Wrong.Even if that is true, the chances are so close to 0, that its not even worth discussing. Chances of being RANDOMLY assaulted walking down the street in Manhattan are like .000000001% and in Morgantown its probably .00000000001%.
Wrong.
Former NYPD Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce says it's alarming.
"We're in different times, now. This is not a spike. It's not a trend. We're in a crime surge right now," Boyce said.
Chief Boyce credits officers for making arrests but blames prosecutors and judges for downgrading crimes.
Nearly half the people in Manhattan are assaulted every day? The humanity!If you walk down the street in Manhattan, what is the chance you are randomly assaulted? 40%? I need a number. Its an infinitely low chance. The violent crime rate is higher right now in Morgantown than NYC.
You're awfully trusting of me to think the crack addict will get to you first.😉im willing to drop 1500 bucks just to quiet these two up about this topic, who's coming with me? oh and for the record, if i go and get raped by a homeless crack addict, my lost innocence is on you both..
No worry, homeless crack addicts have standards too!Jesus Christ, can we all promise to go to this game just so SMF and PIttDan can finally shut the f up about new york city?
Seriously. lets just freakin go, have fun, get drunk and watch pitt beat a terrible cuse team. and that way, pittdan and smf can rant about something else.. if i read another damn post about morgantown vs new york city crime rates, im going to puke..

Homeless crackheads in New York City would be so lucky to be with someone of my looks and statureNo worry, homeless crack addicts have standards too!
Pretty sure he IS a homeless crack addict.Freeport and Dan have great senses of humor. Like u two goofballs. Still undecided on SMF though.
Depending on who you believe, most cities of all sizes hover at 1% or lower for violent crime rates. And for all your ranting about Morgantown, it's about twice as safe as Dahntahn, Yinzerville.Maybe 40% is too high but I do believe there are people out there that believe if they go to Manhattan (and keep in mind, Manhattan, specifically midtown Manhattan is where the vast majority of tourists spend their time), where most crime videos they see on Newsmax are in other boroughs, they have like a 1 in 5 or 1 in 10 chance of someone walking up to them in Times Square and shooting them or mugging them. The chance of that happening is so tiny, about the same of it happening in Morgantown. And if you are a drunk obnoxious Pitt fan, you are in far more danger on a gameday in Morgantown than in NYC.
I'm in. I am going to the game.Jesus Christ, can we all promise to go to this game just so SMF and PIttDan can finally shut the f up about new york city?

Mostly jagging you. You're allowed to feel however you want about NYC but it's really not that bad unless you want to take a deep dive into one of the bad areas of town. No different than Pittsburgh in that respect.Freeport and Dan have great senses of humor. Like u two goofballs. Still undecided on SMF though.
No different than anywhere in that respect.Mostly jagging you. You're allowed to feel however you want about NYC but it's really not that bad unless you want to take a deep dive into one of the bad areas of town. No different than Pittsburgh in that respect.

I’ve been there once as a young’in. Would actually really like to visit nyc as an adult. No anti nyc feelings from me.Mostly jagging you.

NYC is intense. And expensive. Can be very overwhelming. Definitely not for everyone. I can take a few days of it and that's it. Very different than any other large city I've been to.I’ve been there once as a young’in. Would actually really like to visit nyc as an adult. No anti nyc feelings from me.
I’m sure like any city, there are places to avoid and places that are incredible.

You're really giving us a Yelp review type site? Don't cherry pick.
Okay. Now real slowly, use that same database and go look at NYC and do a little of math.West Virginia
