Although I'm certainly not losing sleep over it, St. Louis and Detroit are in fact #3 and #1 in the nation for violent crime (cities with population over 250,000). And not much better by the other metrics. Asking him to find a city with no crime is pretty disingenuous, when *every* other city (sans Oakland) is in fact safer.

If you want to look at the data for cities <250,000. Salt Lake is the only one I remember offhand that people mentioned as a WCMP site.
