Anecdotal but a former high school class mate of mine was robbed and murdered on a city street, in broad day light in Memphis, the year was 1964. The case has never been solved.

In 1964, that would be a freak and extremely rare incident that might happen anywhere in the country.
Today it would be just run of the mill daily life in Memphis.
I still have a daughter living there.
