safe Negril

[ohliz]

In a nutshell, violent crime in Miami is WAAAYYYY higher than in NYC. Missblue may "feel safer" in Miami than she does in NYC, but the facts suggest that she is in fact less safe there than in NYC.

Which is kind of like people feeling safe or unsafe in Negril. If you've had something happen to you or someone you know, you probably don't feel safe. If you haven't, you probably do feel safe. Likewise if a town is "your town" and you know people and know the area, you probably ARE safer, even if the crime rate is higher there than other places.

Facts/statistics have little to do with how safe we feel.
