Boston , Safety:
9/10

The city has seen a great reduction in violent crime since the early 1990s. Boston's low crime rate in the last years of the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first has been credited to its police department's collaboration with neighborhood groups and church parishes to prevent youths from joining gangs, as well as involvement from the United States Attorney and District Attorney's offices. This helped lead in part to what has been touted as the "Boston Miracle." Murders in the city dropped from 152 in 1990 (for a murder rate of 26.5 per 100,000 people) to just 31—not one of them a juvenile—in 1999 (for a murder rate of 5.26 per 100,000). In more recent years, however, the annual murder count has fluctuated by as much as 50% compared to the year before, with 60 murders in 2002, followed by just 39 in 2003, 64 in 2004, and 75 in 2005. Though the figures are nowhere near the high-water mark set in 1990, the aberrations in the murder rate have been unsettling for many Bostonians and have prompted discussion over whether the Boston Police Department should reevaluate its approach to fighting crime.

Darwin, Massachusetts, Australia

You are looking at Darwin in Australia. The city has a population of 105991 residents. It is located on 130.83 degrees longitude, and -11.53 latitude.

Darwin , General info:
9/10

Darwin is the northern most city in Australia. Being very close to Asia, Darwin exhibits a tasty urban asian flavour with amazing night and day markets every week. Being a coastal town Darwin is known for its beautiful ocean sunset and sailing however due to the tropical climate, crocodiles and box jellyfish mean the oceans aren't swimable. The weather in Darwin averages a maximum of roughly 31 degrees (celcius) every month of the year. Darwin is the gateway city to Kakadu, Litchfield park and the plethora of Northern Territory's beautiful national parks and waterfalls. With the tropical climate comes Darwin's very down-to-earth people who epitomise the 'Aussie' culture and cliche.

Sorry Ram,I have to disagree with you on this one : 2. Making One Word Comment: There might be poelpe who just want to be top commentators list but there are genuine poelpe who leave a one word comment because these are the few reasons :1. They wanted to encourage their friend.2. They are in awe of what they read and don't have the right words to write at that time.3. They might be rushing for times and wanted to let their friend know that they did read it and think it is a good one.4. Sometimes when I browse my friends blog and I found on that day, there is no comment, I will drop one word comment, not so much my name is in in the top commentator but to let my friend know that I was there and read his/her post. We all need some encouragement some times, sometimes a hug , sometimes a pad on our back, sometimes a short comment.So my dear Ram, I am here to disagree with you, ha ha ha ha ha.So might turn out to a word comment :).Jamy
