People stuck living and working in these urban hellscapes have a legitimate concern about their safety. Your side simply dismisses their fear.

I don't think they dismiss their fear - but they do dismiss the characterization as an "urban hellscape." As someone who lived in Manhattan in the early 1990's, the modern levels of crime are way way way below those near-record-high levels from back then.

It is certainly worth looking at why crime rates took a bounce off of their near-term lows immediately after the pandemic, and trying to address those increases. But our modern major cities are not "urban hellscapes."
