I’m on my phone right now so hard to check, but I don’t think DC actually is safer than most places.

Crime here is comparatively high, and many people still drive.

It's not listed as a particularly safe or unsafe place by the measure of the Bloomberg article.

When I lived in DC I was several times narrowly missed by people blowing red lights, robbed, and once had to wake a driver up at a red light because they and a passenger had both passed out while driving at 11am. It definitely didn't feel like a particularly safe place.
