People don't understand me?

I was telling my friend how it's really weird that we live in a pocket with very little crime. I told her there is a newsletter that will have the local crime report and all the surrounding areas will have like 8 car thefts, 15 burglaries, and our area will be like one bicycle theft. She said "but that's a good thing" as if I was complaining!!! What? I was not complaining, why would I complain about this??? I said "I know, it's just really weird how all the surrounding areas have all this crime and we are in this little pocket with hardly any crime, it's just an interesting fact, that's all." She repeats that it's a good thing and tries to explain to me how great it is. I know it's great. It's not something you say all enthusiastically "isn't that great?" because the other areas are suffering. But yeah, it's great. I had to tell her, "when I say weird, I don't mean bad, just unusual." Why would I have to explain this to someone? Isn't it obvious that it's a good thing? This happens to me a lot!
