Comment on The one drawback to walking at night
Jyek@sh.itjust.works 1 week agoMaybe I’m too tired or dumb to understand this… But 1 per 100k what? Is this successes per 100k attempts? Is it murderers per 100k people? 1 homicide per 100k human interactions? Maybe a citation would help me to understand the statistic you are referring to. It’s not that I don’t believe the sentiment of this comment but I really don’t know what the figures mean here so I can’t meaningfully gauge what each number means for the safety of a city.

Per 100k people who live there

For what amount of time? The statistic just doesn’t make sense when framed this way.
