If only simple people understood how these stats are calculated and what per capita means. Even though people will use Chicago all the time, they really don't understand how big the city is and how many people live there.
@@Sochi314 - researchers determined - in 2021 there were 797 homicides in Chicago. By comparison, in England and Wales there were 570. There were 788 homicides reported for all of Canada in 2021. In Chicago, the homicide figures do not include killings that occurred in self-defense or in other circumstances not measured in Chicago police statistics. Homicide data from Illinois State Police, which patrols the city’s expressways, also is not included here. So the actual number is likely significantly higher.
@Pat the patriot Yeah I think that part of the reason St. Louis is considered so dangerous is that the city and county are legally separate, unlike places like Nashville, Denver, or LA. I imagine that if you combined the stats from the city and county, they'd be comparable to KC.
While the city has a lot of killing n etc but you do know it’s very big n the numbers aren’t release n slot of unsolved murders won’t count keep in mind that example nyc n nj are wonderful states but nyc city is horrible but since it’s so big it’s not considered that bad but Chicago n nyc has the craziest youth

that problem is unfixable, look at the demographics of baltimore along with every other dangerous crime infested city and youll notice the constant.

Everyone who is doubting Baltimore clearly doesn’t know. Baltimore is weird when it comes to violence. The city itself has many places that are safe like Roland Park. Where it’s actually very dangerous is West Baltimore, Highlandtown, Grove Park, and even more.
St. Louis is lit. Dated a girl from there for a while, basically lived with her... she was almost kidnapped on multiple occasions, we heard gunshots at least 2-3 nights a week... Hell, I got stuck in an art store as a teenager there because some highschool gangs got into a knife fight in the entrance 😄
My dad and I drove through to drop off a trailer. Passed by an apartment block on the way. On our way back, half the block was on fire and people were throwing stuff at the firefighters, cops and EMTs who were trying to keep everyone safe.
In the 90s Newark used to always be towards the top on this kind of list. As someone who used to live about half an hour from Newark, I'm impressed with how far they've come from how they used to be. Incidentally I now live about half an hour from Baltimore; hopefully they follow suit.
@@SeaJayBelfast avoiding areas where the crime rate has fallen? That makes no sense. You need to read the Pew Research study about crime rates in the US - "What the data says (and doesn’t say) about crime in the United States" It shows how Americans ALWAYS believe crime is getting worse, even when it is way way down.
@@shooter7a Crime rates can fall because people avoid know the area is dangerous and subsequently avoid it. Causation Vs Correlation. Crime indexes omit to include fear levels and people cocooning their families from society, which is definitely more of a thing nowadays. Note how few kids even play on the street now Vs 20 years ago and how few people are walking around urban CBD's

As someone who is from Saint Louis, it’s really not as dangerous as it may seem. East Saint Louis is the only extremely dangerous part and the other parts are moderately dangerous which is similar to other cities.
I was gonna say I lived on the Illinois side of the St. Louis Metro Area for a few years and always heard before I left how dangerous St. Louis was but I felt safer in St. Louis then on the Illinois side of things and hate that St. Louis gets such a bad rap when it's East St. Louis that people should be talking about.

I live in Maryland and Baltimore has been running our state into the ground for decades. Their politics control the whole state and the rest of Maryland is so nice
Same with Detroit. The rest of Michigan is forests and beaches and nice small towns. I dont mind though because it keeps people from moving here and driving up the cost of housing.
I live in Michigan and Detroit is not dangerous. The city itself is fine, the problem is the neighborhoods surrounding the city with poverty and homelessness, but those areas aren’t really Detroit… just have a Detroit zip code is all. So it’s skewed.
No, Detroit city proper's still very dangerous, you just been to the good parts. These stats don't count the surrounding areas and they're still very high crime! Like Chicago a huge percentage of the locals and tourist only been to the good parts as the crime is concentrated in certain areas. Detroit's still way better than Flint tho.

I’m from Michigan and my dad worked in Detroit for 4 years and he had to walk an hour to get to the job site. Most workers carried guns for protection.
I went to St Louis to the company i worked overseas, as a foreigner I had no idea of the dangerous of the city. I use to walk in remote roads from A to B all the time, remember this time i was coming back from Target which was beside the hotel and this woman in a van stop beside me asking if I could spare her some cash for gas, I gave her 11USD and there is a moment she keep looking in the back seat whispering to someone, after this I realized they maybe was intending to kidnap me.
Had it cleaned up for a while, but it’s almost back to that. Democrat mayors can do things to a city beyond belief. Until they are willing to admit where and who the problem is, it can’t be fixed, and that’s just not going to happen.

The only reason STL makes the list is because of the city/county split. STL is setup like no other city, where the city and county are completely separate entities. If you include the entire metro area for comparison, STL is like the 5th safest major city in America.
Idk bro stl is fuckin sketchy 😂 no one around here thinks its even remotely safe, there are people dying everyday from shootings and shit, my buddy literally almost got shot like 2 months ago just getting gas and the last time i was out there my other buddy's car got busted into. Like if the rule is "oh just leave your car unlocked so your windows dont get smashed" that is not a safe area my dude 😂
These are done yearly. Many cities are at an up and down when it comes to this. The only cities I see always on this list is Detroit and Baltimore. Everything other placement seems to shift a lot. Don’t really know why though..
@@Green_Arrow118 typical conservative... My point is Republicans make up stories, present them as facts and when presented with reality... change the subject to something else.... like the mayors are Democrats! I never said they weren't.
One of the reasons STL is at the top of these lists is because while other cities include the less violent county in their violence averages in STL the county and city are measured separately.
Seeing all these cities on the news and social media I would think they are crazy dangerous but I stay in Detroit and it really isn’t bad as you think. I guess it’s a way to navigate these cities
Remember when all those other networks slammed a President as 'racist white nationalist' over this supposed 'dogwhistle'- "you had people who were very fine people, on both sides.. and I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and the White nationalists, because they should be condemned totally -" 😂
I went to Manhattan and Brooklyn this past December, ngl I was kinda on the edge expecting to see crime and to hear gunshots at night, but it’s honestly pretty chill. Yeah there’s a bunch of homeless people and some sketchy areas, but we were never in dangerous situations.
@@mike_404 yeah. We stayed in a pretty cool Air BnB in a nice part of town next to Central Park. Like I said we were there in December so we watched some Christmas movies themed around New York like Elf and Home Alone 2 and even ordered the famous Joes Pizza.
Eastside is really east St.Louis so we truly only have 3 sides not counting any of our county's. West, South, and North County (which the last one isn't somewhere to be either) West County is one of the safest places to live fr fr i lived-in Wildwood for over 6 yrs not a peep. No corner stores, liquor stores, homelessness running around none of those types of issues that attract violence. South County is the 2nd, then North County is damn near like living in the city fr fr depending on the area you're in.

The only reason STL makes the list is because of the city/county split. STL is setup like no other city, where the city and county are completely separate entities. If you include the entire metro area for comparison, STL is like the 5th safest major city in America.
