Look at the stats! London "overtakes" NYC because homicides decrease FASTER in that city. But it decreases in both cities. So good news!
> While New York City's murder rate has gone down - decreasing by around 87 per cent since the 1990's - the Big Smoke’s has simultaneously surged. London's has increased by nearly 40 per cent in the space of three years alone - not including deaths caused by terrorist attacks.
