    let's just stick w major metro areas in the US

    in that context, i'd say that

    while SF/SD/LA/Seattle have the most diverse populations,
    the less diverse ones--- Chi/Det/NYC/Phil---have the worser crime problems​

    @rocketsjudoka

    easy answer
    The city doesn’t care about citizens
    They let criminals rob and steal as they please

    This isn't just Chinatown but many businesses have switched from the cash to just credit. This move was greatly accelerated during the Pandemic.

    This is why many Asian communities have been doing things like community policing with volunteers helping to protect elderly people.

    That is sad, and should not be needed in this country.

    I love that @tinman gets his self-righteous panties wadded over things that happen hundreds of miles away from him in places he thinks he hates, all because those places have local media with the decency to report on such frightening and negative things which actually happen in a great many places but receive less attention.

    And still, I have great news for tinmans: if they simply avoid moving to (or even visiting) Cali, one of their (presumably many) problems = solved!

    I think if I hated an area (and I generally do not, though Russia is pretty close at this point), I would just avoid going there and not waste much time thinking about it. But, different strokes!

    not according to this 2021 survey; it fact it is not even top 50 in Calif

    while Stockton has the largest proportion of "people of color", ~ 78%, it is not necessarily the most diverse.

    It is 23rd on that list, which is well inside the top 50. Just different methodologies though. The US News diversity index is based on the odds that any two randomly selected people in the city will be from different of the six major census groups (white, black, Asian, American Indian/Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander and Hispanic).

    in a round about way, you have just your previous baseless claim [that diverse cities have the highest crime]

    this survey shows that in Calif, there are 22 more diverse cities than Stockton, and they all have lower crime rates than Stockton.

    As I said, that survey is one methodology to show diversity. I showed you another methodology published by US News that has Stockton #1. Stockton also has the highest percentage of POC, which is another measure of diversity (what the left considers diversity, like an all Asian TV show is considered diverse). So the city with the highest diversity index per US News in America, as well as the city with the highest percentage of POC in California is high in crime. If some other measure that says having more white people is more diverse results in a lower ranking for this high crime city of mine, I don't think it helps your argument.
