You are correct. The average American city dweller now experiences a lower crime rate than in suburbia. (That is an average, obviously some cities are dangerous and some suburbs are very safe.)

Yes, this is the long-run, natural state of cities. It's why they exist in the first place. They are where economic activity is most concentrated.
American has had a weird 60 years where we inverted that situation, but it is already beginning to revert back to historically normal.
