This is true.
Now if we were to pick this apart, I will explain to you why I still would have a hard time trusting any statistics, given the things others have said (not just folks commenting on these threads).
I grew up in the NYC of the 80's. Then, as now, most of the violent crime against Asians was committed by black folks, as another responder has pointed out (albeit in a way that I find unhelpful). Indeed, until you move up in social class, you will be targeted, as an Asian person, by disadvantaged people from lower social classes (no, they won't just be black, I can say that from personal experience).
The emphasis here is on social class. Economic class on its own is not quite good enough. (To go off in a tangent, you have to move up in economic class, and leverage that to move up in social class, which tends to put you in friction with already-established social elites, but like I said, that's another matter, and moving up in social class still makes you relatively safe physically.)
Anyway, there has been quite a discrepancy between attacks on Asians in 2020s west coast cities versus NYC. I know this because I still have older relatives on the ground in NYC. There has also been historically much greater discrimination in NYC than west coast cities, e.g. in SF. This is what happens to Asians in general in the U.S., because of the role we'd been slotted as a model minority.
So, I don't have to be directly, physically attacked by the majority in order to feel unsafe.
What leads to the lack of safety I've experienced is something like the bamboo ceiling, and for me to be part of an economically-advantaged but politically-disadvantaged group, by construction. I would expect to be different, in Germany (and in particular, the AfD parts of East Germany), just as much in the U.S. When I read the history books, I understand that such a situation tends to lead to inevitabilities I'd rather not get into here, when e.g. the economy goes bad – and this would not just be about Germany. It may not be violent today, but there's no telling about tomorrow.
With that all said, I will concede to you that Germany would still be safer than the U.S., because all things being equal, if you're stuck in the same social situation but one place is more violent than the other, then you will probably survive in the less-violent place for longer.
But it's still not encouraging to compare Germany to the U.S. For me, that's like considering jumping from one pot of hot water into another. This isn't just a debate about statistics. The first and second generations, being recently emigrated, will often frame such things in terms of: should I stay here, or should I move there, when these comparisons are made. Because ultimately, you can talk about statistics and the theory of how it all is, but when you're a canary in the coal mine, "should I move there" is where the buck stops. With that question you're not just debating anymore. You're taking your life in your own hands.
To that end, you will ask questions about being different, and being disempowered socially. If they don't get you in this generation, the internalized prejudices will get your kids in the next. Moving to a different place with a totally different culture, where there's a lot fewer people who look like me, and where a party like the AfD has the hold that it does, does not justify itself. If I were my parents, emigrating to the West, and doing it all over again in today's context, Berlin might be an alternative – not Leipzig or Dresden, but that is kind of a moot point for those of us already Westernized in the U.S.
