Kennesaw’s crime rate is just below the crime rate in New York City which has has a rate of 2,802 crimes per 100,000 people.
"The latest statistics available – for the year 2005 – show the rate at 2,027 per 100,000."
An extra 775 per 100,000 in the crime rate is hardly "just below".
So Kennesaw’s crime rate is about, what 22% lower?
Is that overall crime rate? I wonder what the difference in VIOLENT crime rate is? That’s more meaningful. Because I don’t believe people who are legally allowed to carry a firearm are allowed to shoot people who egg their house.
