Yes, but it is just less likely to happen to you in NYC than most of the country such as in the republican state of Oklahoma where a triple murder suspect has confessed, saying he killed a neighbor first and cut her heart out to eat at home. Unlike smaller cities, you are less likely to be a victim of violent crime in NYC simple because violent crime is relatively low considering the number people in the city.

There is so many problems with this assumption.
1)it doesn't account for higher population making it harder to account for all incidents, nor the sweeping under the rug and data fudging that takes place, look the other way DA's, and recent issues to maintain enough enforcement.
2)the Fake News Media recently reported that 80% of Americans this year experienced weather related catastrophes, obviously not true, but it's the way they played it for sake of climate change narrative. The point being, why does their standard method counting always change and switch back and forth to suit their narrative? Answer: Politics.
This is why the Vax /unvax #'s always change and never add up, percentages of effectiveness never adds up to actual figures, death toll stalls or never adds up to the daily additions and even went backwards like the vaxed numbers.
We saw this with the political polls and then during the election, whereby numbers changed and didn't add up.
Point being: DEMOGRAPHIC numbers can be fudged with for political reasons for sake of tourism and being more popular.
You've probably seen this with popular night spots reputations being protected by local law enforcement through victims being cohersed into not pressing charges, so the crime stats and rep do not taint the establishment and town/city's numbers=good for the business, tourism, and department in keeping the numbers deflated from real stats, and thus lower then they actually are.
