Robbers Rediscovering the Small-Town Bank: "Professor Weisheit, co-author of a 1999 book on crime and policing in small-town America, said that in 1990, the robbery rate in the nation's largest cities was 54 times that of rural areas; in 2000, it was 27 times as high. Just 1.4 percent of robberies in big cities were of banks, compared with 3.5 percent in cities with fewer than 10,000 people."
