Most Dangerous Cities in America

If anyone watched David Letterman the other night, he commented on New York City's low ranking on the list of the most dangerous cities in America, placing at #269, which according to these stats means that NYC is safer than Seattle (# 157), San Francisco (# 130), and Los Angeles, (# 158).

To help you sort through the numbers, we've compiled a listing of the top 5 most dangerous cities with some relevant stats for your consideration. Just keep in mind that maybe Dave's right: maybe it is that rowdy gang of Clydesdales that are responsible for the number one city's ranking of the most dangerous city in America.

Moving? How to Find the Perfect Neighborhood

Whether buying or renting, if you're like me, a neighborhood has to feel right and be right for your particular needs. And this can change as you get older, have a family or return to a single life.

So, before you move research your options; get to know the area, spend some time on its streets, in its cafes and strolling along its sidewalks. Just like any relationship, feel it out before you move just to make sure it's a good fit.

Besides, you may just discover the best cappuccino or fresh baked croissants or the prettiest park in the city. And that in itself is worth all the research.

A Checklist for International Moves

As I mentioned in an earlier post, my sister and her husband are on their way to Mexico, driving with their two dogs, one cat and a car-full of their worldly possessions.

They've been hit by Karl (the hurricane), given wrong directions several times and are having a difficult time finding pet-friendly accommodation despite hotel websites claiming they love dogs. Of course, this is just the start of their international story.

For anyone contemplating a move overseas, use this checklist as a guide to help you through a complicated move. It might not be able to predict Karl, but it will ensure you're thinking of all the possible pitfalls!

Move an Armoire or Heavy Cabinet

Once during a self-move, I thought I'd cut some corners (literally) when it came time to move some of the larger pieces of furniture, including a wardrobe that I'd stripped and repainted the previous summer. I thought I could get away with moving it just as it was, clothes and shoes still in place. What I discovered was, cabinets, wardrobes and armoires tip over really easily, and corners chip and doors break off and clothes end up in mud puddles in the middle of the street.

I was young. That's my only defense.

Cabinets and wardrobes all require a little bit of TLC. It's not that they're complicated or even very fragile, it's more that they deserve some extra care when considering how to pack and move them.
