The trouble is those clean cities full of opportunity devolve into dangerous dirty cities when the high trust bonds of community break down.

In the case of America, violent crime is at a 50 year low. New York City, for example, was far more dangerous back when La Cosa Nostra was calling the shots than it is today.

Wasn’t the 50 year low just before Covid?

Tokyo and Singapore do not. My whole country, and family, struggle with corruption, poverty, third-world-country crime and infrastructure, extortion, gang violence, and I’m supposed to want to go back and live there and raise my kids there? Nah, there are far better places to be despite being far from family.
