You are quite right. Smaller cities are always safer. Just because people know each other. The more people you have packed into an area, the less likely they'll know each other. People tend to keep to themselves and go about their business. It's just easier to harm people you don't know.

We rarely hear about gang problems in Smalltown, USA. Mostly we hear about them in big cities. And of course Smalltown USA just happens to be much better armed with lax gun laws.
