[Batman] Is Gotham really that dangerous or does it just look that way due to all the highly publicized incidents. Furthermore, how does it compare to other real-world cities with high crime rates?

Say I'm born and raised in Gotham and never leave. How likely is it that I'll have a moderately comfortable life (not a luxury or anything) and live well into my 70s before passing of old age or will I be constantly living in fear that I'll meet a truly horrific demise for seemingly no reason? 

Is Gotham truly that dangerous a place to live or does it only look that way due to the large-scale devastation of some of its crimes (Due to the superpowered beings attacking it) and how the local and probably even international press surely sensationalizes the incidents whenever they happen giving the impression that it's so much worse?

And if Gotham truly is as bad as it appears would I have better chances of living to old age in say Honduras, Colombia or Somalia?

Its not the best city but its not an active warzone either (most of the time) . City wide destruction events don't happen that often and most super criminals are not that powerful.

But the city is ruled by multiple criminal organisations and the governement is corrupt as hell. So you have a good chance to have to deal with the mafia at some point.
