You are way more likely to die in a rural area than an urban one. Urban areas do have a slightly higher risk of death through violent crime, but the reduction in traffic fatalities makes up for that considerably. Also, if you ever do get shot or stabbed, you're really close to 3 level 1 trauma centers and one level 2 trauma center. That will greatly increase your risk of survival. Cities are much better places to get stabbed than rural areas.

You should be embarrassed by your behavior

If you want another look, this one actually compares deaths from external causes, not just all cause mortality. You're still much safer in cities that aren't Baltimore than rural areas.

What about that study do you think is fake?

It doesn’t line up with his prejudices. Therefore, it must be fake news.
