Read the risks separately, not as one score.
The available data covers 4 distinct measures. Compare each measure with its reporting period and geography before drawing conclusions about personal risk.

What these numbers can—and cannot—tell you
Recorded crime depends on reporting practices, police recording systems, geographic boundaries and the period being measured. A lower figure in one category does not establish that every neighborhood, time of day or traveler faces the same risk.
When comparing cities, use like-for-like measures whenever possible. Municipality data should not be directly ranked against metro-area data or a different reporting definition without adjustment.
