Wow does that ever depend on your definition of "peace". Or more so what places you are discussing. There are portions of Baltimore MD that are "nice" then portions that contribute to the city having the highest per capita murder rate. So one could say Baltimore is peaceful while another couldn't wait to get out of the cesspool.
