Boston is a good city for comparative purposes:

I plugged DC in there and compared to Denver:

The results are surprising. Denver is a high crime rate city. NYC has much
less crime than Denver. Bullets are flying all over the place in Colorado
and there is a fair amount of crime, especially in remote areas. I warn
everyone not to come to Colorado. Gunfights in traffic are a weekly
occurrence, school shootings are an annual event. Since the 1980's, in
almost every attempt to assasinate a sitting President in which bullets
flew, the shooter came from Colorado.
