It's a beautiful place, but what amazed me is the crime there. There is
a drug called ice, and it's rampant in the cities. In Honolulu crime is
horrible. I wanted to walk around the city proper one evening to get
away from the touristy places and see the real city, and was told I
probably shouldn't!

Honolulu is America's 3rd safest large city. Here is the top 5 for
both safest and most dangerous. You can see the entire list at:

Overall crimes per 100,000 people:
Honolulu 6360.38 National average 4118.8

Burglary:
Honolulu 991.97 National average 746.2

Theft
Honolulu 4136.9 National average 2445.8 (almost TWICE! the national
avg.)

Car theft:
Honolulu 942.66 National average 432.1 (MORE than twice!)

Honolulu faired a little better than the national average in robbery,
assault, and very good in murder, but the overall average of crimes is
still above national average. And factor in that the national average
takes into account such hell holes as Oakland, CA, and Detroit.
