Some parts of the UK, (leicester, sheffeild, north london), and more dangerous than chicago, la, and miami in terms of your chances of getting stabbed.


That may be true but you have a much higher chance of getting shot in Chicago or Miami. Also Chicago and Miami are middle of the pack when it comes to murder rate as compared to the places you mention in the UK where the murder rate is very high compared to the rest of the country. The small city that I live in has a higher murder rate than Chicago and Miami. "Rampant" crime is in the eye of the beholder I guess.
