 From Crime in England and Wales 06/07 (Page 54) There were an estimated 2,471,000 reported violent crimes committed against adults between Sep 06 and Sep 07. Using the population estimate of 60,943,912 by the CIA factbook in 2007, that calculates out to roughly 4052.8 incidents per 100,000 people.  The latest numbers I have for the US are from 2005... 469.2 per 100,000. Even Washington DC was only 1459.0 per 100,000. | |

What I observed with crime in the U.K. is the same thing I observe with crime here in the USA. Crime and violence are generally associated with geographical pockets that are typically run down areas, typically have fatherless families, with single mothers raising kids at/near poverty levels, with gang influence and rampant drug abuse. There, just like here, stay out of the bad neighborhoods and you will be fine. Only isolated violence seems to occur outside of those areas here and in the UK. Much of that violence involves crimes of passion or random robbery gone bad. All that said, I think the laws there are crazy and while I enjoyed my extended visit, there is no way I'd want to live there
