You think all their schools suck? Funny coincidence?
Cleveland Ping
Cleveland has the 2nd and 20th most dangerous neighborhoods.
Not one California neighborhood in the top 25? I’m surprised.
I wonder what the percentage of illegal immigrants live in those 2 Vegas neighborhoods?
Based on 20th/21st century American history I’d say there’s a neighborhood in Hyde Park that has been dangerous far out of proportion to these others.
Guess Atlanta is a complete and total hell hole. Gee, I wonder why. Also interesting: the most dangerous DC neighborhood is adjacent to the Navy Yard, where they are spending billions to create “outdoor spaces,” as well as the Nationals stadium. I am surprised, I thought it would be the Trinidad neighborhood and points northeast.
Hmmm....a lot of the neighborhoods are near MLK Blvd. Gosh, what are the odds?! Maybe crime would drop if we quit naming streets after MLK...?

Funny this supposed neighborhood was public housing that was wiped off the map by Hurricane IKE. How old is this info anyway?
North Las Vegas is where a lot of black L.A. gang members moved after Hispanic immigration pushed them out. Not at all surprised to see the area well-represented on the list. Every caucasian LV resident knows never to go near D Street or East Fremont.
With Hussein and his buddies moving to DC, you’d think Chicago would have dropped in ranking.
I work not too far from the Orlando neighborhood, and it’s definitely undesirable, but I have a hard time believing that some of the Miami neighborhoods are better.
All kiddin’ aside, what is wrong with our society that such high casualty rates were OK? It must be safer to be in a shooting war than be in some of these ‘hoods. Not right.

Chicago, huh? Surprise. And last week they gained one more crook.
Did you notice that all these neighborhoods rank high on being “hip and trendy.”
So it seems high crime goes hand and hand with hip and trendy.
I’ll just leave it at that.
Just out of curiosity, how many of these are WHITE, MIDDLE CLASS neighborhoods??
Baltimore’s not on here? Come on.
Not surprised to see Memphis has 3 neighborhoods listed in the top 20.
