As a Philadelphian that has visited large cities in China, I can't begin to tell you how much safer one feels in China. I've been lost walking around poor neighborhoods in Shanghai late at night and never felt unsafe. No one has a gun in China, excluding the military and special police forces - that fact alone makes a huge difference.
