Midwest

Yeah the urban midwest has got some of the hardest spots in the entire country. The usual suspects (Detroit, Gary, Cleveland, St. Louis, even KC) are always near the top of the list year after year, they just seem to take turns as to whose #1

Murder Rate

how do i check the murder rate in my city?

I'm not sure how to get the numbers from this year, but last years rankings for overall crime had Tac-City at #33.

A site where you can compare places is:

http://www.homefair.com/homefair/calc/crime.html?type=to

That gives you an overall crime-index as well as homicide & other crimes per 100,000 people.

You can see if your city is on this list. This is from 2002 and it's for crime overall and not jus murder. It's broke down in all kinds of different caregories: city, metro area, cities wit 1million pop. u get it.

The real fucked up part is if the pace continues, Detroit could go past 1,000 murders by years end.
