First, how safe is Columbus? Councilmember Hearcel Craig calls the city "one of the safest big cities in the United States," while Samuel charged that Columbus is "ranked by FBI statistics as the ninth most dangerous city in the country. With a population of 731,000, according to census figures used by the FBI, Columbus' murder rate in 2006 was about 13.8 per 100,000 population. By contrast, the homicide rate in Cleveland was about almost 17 per 100,000; Dayton was about 20 per 100,000; and Cincinnati a whopping 29 per 100,000 - more than double the Columbus rate. Mayor Michael Coleman has pointed to a number of specific strategies, including the city "strike forces" that operated in crime-impacted neighborhoods during the spring and summer months, and the mayor's anti-gang initiative ...
Your story indicating that American Samoa is per capita the top recipient of federal stimulus funds suggests we might be less deserving than others are ("States in need not first in line," Page 1, April 24). However, per-capita comparisons are misleading. That American Samoa, the District, the Virgin Islands, Rhode Island, Vermont and North Dakota are all at the top of the list suggests a skewing of statistics, since by population we are among the country's smallest jurisdictions. If Congress were to provide funding for an ambulance, for example, that vehicle might serve a half-million people in a major city but only a fraction of that number in a small state or territory. No matter how many people were served, the ambulance would cost the same. You can't give a full ambulance to Los An...

I would like to commend Laurie Edwards-Tate for bringing to attention a problem that has affected nearly 1 in 10 aging Americans, according to statistics published by the National Center on Elder Abuse ("Stamping out financial elder abuse despite Jerry Brown's veto," Web, Oct. 19). Financial exploitation of elders falls under the category of elder abuse, along with emotional and sexual abuse, neglect, abandonment and even self-neglect. Many Americans are unaware of the vast, complex web of issues that affect the aging population every day. The plights of the aging population across the country often go unnoticed, frequently garnering mention only after the fact, such as the case of Bette Isenberg in Ms. Edwards-Tate's article.
