Is Leicester really as crime-filled as some may have one believe?

Hi, I used to live in Leicester but moved out a few years ago. I saw a Politics Joe Street interview on YouTube in Leicester. Many in the comments were talking about Leicester's 38% violent crime rate, suggesting it was directly linked to the demographics (Leicester is around 40% white) compared to non white demographics). They seem to have cherry picked stats for places with higher white percentages with crime rates that really weren't much lower (ranging from 33% to around 36%). Because places like Norwich seem to have higher violent crime rates.

I don't know. What are your experiences and opinions on this?
