What words _would_ you use to describe a city with fewer homicides per capita than almost all other major US cities? Might want to look at some relevant data;

  I got a page not found error going to that link. Also the parent said "violent crime" not just homicides. In addition it is known that homicides among the homeless, of which SF is known to have many, are underreported. Plus there is plenty of property crime as well.

    Where is that known? Known by who? Do you have any actual evidence of this claim?

It even allows you to sort by type of crime. > In addition it is known that homicides among the homeless, of which SF is known to have many, are underreported. Uhhh...Have you ever been around a decomposing corpse? They're not so easy to hide or dispose of, and the population you're talking about isn't likely to have the resources to do so. As such, you might want to check the "source" of information you're relying on for that assertion. That said, I could be completely wrong and SF's homeless community has a bustling trade in disposing of bodies. But that seems pretty unlikely, don't you think?
