Any inner city in CT is a war zone. I was going to say jungle but...
Camden, NJ aspires to work its way up to sh*ithole.
Kind of confusing. We do know Chicago, Baltimore, Atlanta, St. Louis, etc ... but some of those cities in the south don’t make sense like Monroe. You have a town of five hundred people and ten are shot that would maybe make it look worse than Chicago.
Too much of modern western culture is an agreed-upon lie, either overtly or tacitly. I doubt it will get better anytime soon.
Gangs, drugs and St. Skittles types.
Monroe is the worst, as Cincinnati is the best at #100.
Wow - that surprises me. Those duck boys need to come out of the woods and do some street patrol.
“Wow, Salt Lake City jumps from not even on the list to 90.”
Salt Lake has become just like other major cities, but from the stats below the problem isn’t with AA’s
Stats:
At the 2010 census, Salt Lake City’s population was 75.1% White, 2.6% African American, 1.2% American Indian and Alaska Native, 4.4% Asian, 2.0% Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander, 10.7% from other races and 3.7% of mixed descent. 22.3% of the total population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.
Yeah, no kidding, I can't take a study seriously when it has Richmond CA as one of the safest cities.
So I don’t really know then. Monroe being #1 at the bottom is worse than #58 Chicago? Wow.
Caption—You kids get outta da house and go play.
I believe somebody has their math wrong. A murder every 12 minutes would be 120 murders per day.
How many of the top 100 have Republican leadership? (crickets)
Jackson, TN is a small city of 70,000 or so. Statistics on a city that small is an outlier.
Camden, number 4! Wilmington, number 7! Philly is way down there at number 76, even safer than DC, at number 41.
How could I have forgotten Chester? It’s number 21! Twice as safe as Baltimore, number 11.
It’s ironic that Philly’s score is “76”, you have to admit. Somebody should put up a big clothespin statue at City Hall plaza with the spring lever shaped like a 76... oh, wait....
“The city that loves you better than the worst 75 cities!
When did Cincinnati become safe?
It's because the east coast was settled earlier, so a lot of the earlier small board or brick houses fell into ruins earlier. Also, eastern cities were largely industrial, and became not only the intake for immigrants earlier, but also for post-Civil Rights southerners coming north for work.
This argument should be framed in terms of victims and not perps. Blaming perps excuses leftists who cause these conditions from blame, because all they have to do is cry structural racism, blah blah. It’s not true, but that’s their excuse.
Meanwhile, they’re also getting a free pass from the victims. If we conservatives focused on the so real and horrible consequences of these crimes we’d make a stronger argument against the actual causes of them.
You got that right. Philly's large white blue-collar neighborhoods went straight downhill as soon as Philly legalized gambling. Mobster paradise; no parking on weekends; "booze and broads" atmosphere and big payoffs seeping up into the city council, etc.
