It's not necessarily the biggest cities that have the highest crime rate. Covesmart.com had this to say regarding crime:

Every year, the FBI collects crime data from every state and county. To calculate the crime data, the FBI records the total number of crimes, divides the total crimes by the area’s population, and then multiplies it by 100,000.
