Stephen Franks on a book review of The City That Became Safe:
One year I noticed a peak in the Central Police district homicide figures (Wanganui, Manawatu, Hawkes Bay) and had a statistician friend check for me – that district did indeed have a higher murder rate than New York.
While purely subjective, I often feel safer in London than I did in NZ. Heather Mac Donald’s book review here.
