Hurts my heart to hear that New Mexico is worst for violent crime. I visited for a few weeks, doing a private study of climatic architectural methods & styles during the '90s and stayed in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Taos. I loved every day of my time there, apart from a bit of altitude sickness in Taos. At no time did I ever feel unsafe or any sense of forbidding.

[@brucekrause2801]

There is no place in America like New Mexico, maybe this negative publicity is good, because our population isn't growing like Az, Tx. I absolutely love NM, will never leave. I've also never commited a crime nor been a victim of one. I have in Florida though, a horrendous place to live

[@friendly-nemesis4754]

This is the fundamental problem with assessing states by their aggregate statistics; Santa Fe and Taos contribute essentially nothing to New Mexico's reputation for crime, and even Albuquerque's crime data is more than a bit misleading; the bad parts in and around the South Valley are real trouble, but there are vast swaths of the city that are as safe as you could wish. One thing that definitely brings the state average down in terms of both crime and poverty are the reservation territories on the northwest side of the state; a higher percentage of the population of New Mexico is aboriginal than in any of the other lower 48, and the tribal reservation communities there are dirt-poor and riddled with (often drug-and/or-alcohol-fueled) crime. As bad as the worst areas of New Mexico are, their impact simply isn't very far-reaching, and they shouldn't be taken as an indictment of even the majority of the state, much less all of it.

It’s really sad and I almost started crying.

[@vazquezcarlos]

He's doing it per 100k people. Since NY has 19+ million people and NYC has 8+ million, plus another 2-4 million commute daily from the metro area like NJ and CT, plus tourists, the number of crime victims is relatively low compared to the population size. You also hear about NY crime more because of the larger population, the major news/entertainment outlets are here, plus it's the financial capital of the country...if not the world. For example, you might hear about an attack in the subway making national news, but 3+ million people take the subway daily (and another 1.4 million take buses daily). So you have a 1 in 3 to 5 million chance getting attacked!! Doesn't sound that high now. You have a much higher chance getting into a deadly car accident.

Am in WA now and agree Seattle area is getting worse, lived up here for near 20 years and the last 3 have been insane.

DeSantis is a big supporter of law enforcement and sees it as an essential public service. We have strong self-defense and property rights laws and citizens are allowed to legally carry firearms for self-protection. From what I can tell.

Legalizing drugs may not have been so bad if it wasn't for the way it was done. Alcohol is legal pretty much everywhere. Being blotto drunk in public is not. But doing drugs in public was allowed. Not just being high in public, but actually shooting up drugs in public was OK. That's the beginning of the failure right there. Then, when you spend all your money on drugs and end up homeless, that was allowed too. Just set up a tent as close to your dealer as you can get. If they approached legal drug use the way they did alcohol use, maybe it wouldn't have been the disaster it turned into. Legal to do, but in private, not in public. and if it is getting you in trouble, intervene with mandatory counciling, the way they do with alcohol use. I can't help thinking it was set up this way on purpose. This way, they can say they did what the public wanted, and it didn't work, then use that as an excuse to take more control of everything, and everyone.

[@rayjeanes5778]

Hey Briggs, beach town is tops on my list for best places to retire

[@sharondunn6513]

for where I would retire to the number one criteria would not be if it was close to a beach or mountains. It would have to be close to a major hospital. As you age, that becomes a big criteria for where you live.

[@stevemilcoffmilcoff4655]

Good vidio

[@lyndafayesmusic]

FOR THOSE WHO'VE NEVER SEEN A GROUP OF 100k PEOPLE, can you please state you NUMBER RATIOS in regard to HOW MANY per every ONE person ? This is an EXCELLENT NARRATOR, we recognize him from many other videos; but he's still mispronouncing the month of Feb-BREW-ary, and missing the plural possessives, such as most of our government speakers and news cast anchors are, so it's forgivable; Thanks Again, "The Mississippi Valley Lady," and "A Love Song for Joe Biden" as he'll be needing one badly.

Friday 24 May 2024 Dear Briggs ~ I am a fan for about two years now . Your presentations are both informative and helpful . You are a " go to guy " !

[@davecampbell9540]

Desert town, until we run out of water. Second, beach town, until the ocean swallows it. Crap. Well, probably have to work until I die anyway. Love your channel!

[@rickfernandez1104]

Small town requirements: no snow, never goes below 50°, safe and affordable, no need for a car, has decent internet.

[@mbasir]

In other words: Not in the USA.

[@seameology]

I love the snow and -40. Keeps riff raff out.

[@mosescajigas919]

Good luck with finding that.

[@maobfh]

And lots of bugs. Without a good freeze, they don’t die. See Florida

[@foxywhitetip7387]

@seameology 💯💯💯

[@tsb7911]

First view. First comment. First Like.

[@WorldAccordingToBriggs]

Legend!

[@lechatbotte.]

Lol

[@AlthosWTF]

I'm thinking nothing coastal. I guess some where's with some small mountains or at least wooded hills for retiring. I've been checking out Fayetteville. AR

[@tatianarichardson1014]

I am retired and live in a small newly built community 20 min away from Denver, CO. We are safe by now but in a few years the wave of crime will definitely reach us.

[@staceygroce8901]

Small beach town

[@erikaturner409]

I am retired in Solvang California. Why don't you do an episode on tourist towns? The crime seems very low here.

[@dsuttajit]

Love Solvang and Santa Barbara

[@donaldmickunas8552]

I retired to, what I consider to be a medium-sized town in Tennessee, Morristown. It has adequate shopping and a local bus system. I've been living here for 3 years and I am quite happy.

[@JMoroccoMisterBoy]

Tks. much.

[@9546aw]

Notably missing from this list are: New York, New jersey, Pennsylvania Delaware, Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.

[@clowning81]

Hey Briggs.

[@WorldAccordingToBriggs]

Hey

[@fredorman2429]

In 2013 I rode my motorcycle into Huachuca City AZ from New York and never looked back. I love the high desert.

[@paland99]

Cool little town. I lived there in 1974 for a little bit. I went to Buena HS in Sierra Vista.

[@richardstaggs951]

River town, Fort Smith Arkansas currently live in SoCal.

[@claritzaechevarria7693]

I will move to Camden, Maine or Bar Harbor, Maine.

[@umassigkap]

All of my Moms side of the family is from kid Coast Maine . Very pretty and expensive

[@whitebeardInn]

I'd retire in a mountain town.

[@josephschmidt1751]

Riggs I love all your videos. I think rivertown

[@NicholasIG]

Mississippi just surprised me, I was waiting to see Mississippi on the list. Looks like they are doing a great job.

[@dennisw.truman3325]

Good evening Briggs! Have a great day! 🎚️🇺🇸🪖👮‍♂️

[@LuckyBaldwin777]

The most dangerous state is the state of delusion.

[@TenFalconsMusic]

. Mississippi is a state of extreme dichotomy. Jackson (the state capital) is more dangerous than Kabul, Afghanistan... ...but the rest of the state is Mayberry.

[@montemasterson9588]

Absolutely right. The northeast part of the Magnolia State is nice.

[@beefsupreme6488]

Yup and Caracas Venezuela

[@mikeevans1430]

Born and raised in Albuquerque. It used to be a great place, but not safe anymore. Just sad to see it.

[@beefsupreme6488]

Albuquerque used to be one of the best towns in the country back in the day. But before New Mexico became a state it was worse than it is now.

[@ThomasPotato]

To answer your question, I think I would retire to a west-midwestern small town (think South Dakota, Wyoming, Idaho) New Mexico is really sad how low they rank on some lists, I personally find it to be a beautiful state, I really hope they can pull themselves up one day.

[@Whats-It-To-Ya]

Legalizing drugs didn't work out like they planned? I'm shocked!

[@josephschmidt1751]

I'm here to tell you that while California was only seven on the list it is number one in reality. I've never been to New York but I have a feeling that the scene is similar there. The massive population is a buffer and the social climate is such that many crimes go on reported and or unprosecuted. We have more than a quarter million homeless people and a massive problem with illegal immigration. I'm telling you in real experiences California is number one on this list

[@sungsam7996]

I love these videos, i say “ it does a great depiction from the poiny of view of the person who thinks little of others just because your bank account and lifestyle do not mesh…as well as from a blinders on full speed ahead point.” I lived in the Northwest and each state. A ton of what is side has a mirage of truth to it.

[@user-sk5nq7dk6i]

Again, another Classic Briggs "Most States" listing. He is a fair evaluator. Keep them coming, concise and current.

[@hildabeaverhausen3944]

You missed New York.

[@TheDevilfromtheBible]

Florida is a real dangerous state

[@SA-hz1rs]

Yup

[@marknewton6984]

But no snow 😎.

[@SA-hz1rs]

@@marknewton6984 no, you have horrible humidity all freaking year.

[@marknewton6984]

I like humidity. Cold weather is not good.😮

[@KristNi]

All of them are

[@buffalosoilder2112]

Not far from you are the little towns of Ashland and Jacksonville, Oregon. Both right outside Medford. Especially loved Ashland.

[@jamesminor1869]

Desert town close to mountains. Is that double dipping?

[@opencarry3860]

Vote blue and you'll be living the blues.

[@T69778]

I think that’s the opposite red states are more dangerous 😂
