Hipsters: wash their food to get rid of nano particles that might raise cancer risk by 1/100,000, but live downtown where their risk of being murdered goes up by orders of magnitude more.

No seriously. Moving from the rest of Oregon to Portland (a relatively safe city) increases your lifetime chance of getting murdered by 1/1,000. If there was a food additive that did that, creating 100 extra cancer cases per 100,000, it would be plastered with warning labels.
