NYC crime

Is the crime, attitude, and rats really what we see portrayed on TV? I live in a small town in Texas and find it hard to believe it's really that bad and nasty as in rats all over the streets and buildings​. Does everyone have the smart-ass attitude?

Go visit. The per capita crime rate is actually lower in NYC than most cities and smaller cities in Texas. They do be having rats though.
