20 Most Dangerous Cities in Georgia (my hometown is 10th - Douglas)
homesecurityshield.org ^

Posted on 10/11/2014 4:53:28 PM PDT by RoosterRedux

What are the most dangerous cities in Georgia? To get the lowdown on the cities in Georgia that are the most dangerous with the highest crime rates, we consulted the most recent FBI Uniform Crime Report. Our rankings are based solely on the data publicly released each year by the FBI. A crime is a crime, so we took both violent and property crimes into account when compiling our list of Georgia’s most dangerous cities. Our list of dangerous cities, however, are ranked according to violent crime rate.*

We realize that this topic is inherently controversial in nature and hits close to home. We are aware that there are many different ways to present this data, but when compiling this list we chose to consider not just murder rate, but both violent and property crimes. Our list is ranked by violent crime rate, but check each city listing to get a general idea of the city’s ranking in terms of overall criminal offenses. Only cities with populations over 5,000 were included. We also excluded cities with overall crime rates under 70.

I live in one of the nicest neighborhoods in town and we have had a robbery one street over and many robberies in town. Being Southerners, we were previously armed to the hilt but lost out weapons in boating accidents up on the river.

What a shame.

River hunting has fallen out of favor.

My hometown is a small town but has been plagued with thug attacks (not a racial matter...thugs come in all colors). We are fighting back.

Folks down here are armed to the teeth.

I keep my Glock 26 nearby at all times.

How about Rome, GA?

My paternal grandmother’s family was from there - surname = Yancey

I think it's because we have a large county population and those who commit crimes come into a low population city (30,000+ in the county and around 10K in the City).

That said, we have plenty of Obama thugs in town and they are hungry to help redistribute the wealth.

Rome seems to have fallen beneath the radar.

But crime in GA is a matter of thug culture.

It's not race...it's crime.

Funny.

Kennesaw - which has a mandatory gun law - is not on that list of the most dangerous towns in GA ....

My home town is certainly not a city. It is just a village.

A nice village, but still a village.

Many folks in my little town carry. This crime wave will taper downward in the near future.

“Are there even 20 cities in Georgia?”

Well, I bet there’s at least a couple of paved roads in Georgia, unlike what Michael Bloomberg claimed about Colorado: no paved roads in a state like us that’s so backwards that we’re against gun control.

We just moved to a bigger city (Columbus). I am gratified that we didn’t make the list. Nice city. Easy to get around in. The Tom’s factory smells like Jalapeno chips ALL the time!
