While crime rates have gone down, I have heard that complaints about police
behavior have gone up (Newsweek, sometime in the past month or two). In
other words, New York may be a safe place, but do not try bringing a gun
(or illegal drugs) there. It may be legal to carry a gun, but people have
been harassed for less.

Of course, no where is perfect, yet.
