Top 10 for violent crime LOL. Nooooo actually....Missouri state is #1 for for violent college crime; and Springhole is the 4th most dangerous town in America Oct 2022. Springfield’s violent crime rate per 1,000 ranks 15.1, and the property crime rate per 1,000 is 69.5. Do you have Keystone cops in the craphole city, or a Soros elected DA?
It’s really not that bad. Especially if you live in south Springfield like I did. There’s absolutely areas I would NEVER live, no doubt. But don’t let the crime to population ratio keep you from living cheap in a good city. I can help you find a great part of town, no matter your budget
While this appears to be true in sheer "reported" #s, it is vital for an accurate understanding to grasp the full context. Context tells us, the police chief warned us in an October letter to the editor roughly 5-6 years back that beginning the following January we would begin reporting crime stats using the FBI's recommended model. It gets too complicated to explain from thereon. Needless to say, the letter was quite lengthy and in a "put it in one paragraph at most culture' most fell sadly on deaf ears. I did read the entire article to the end but it seems since in talking with the general population that few did likewise. Sad as it was reported. To summarize many cities, especially larger cities do not report crime stats in a uniform manner. So a given person in our culture comparing their city's particular 'reported' crime rate with another city's 'reported' crime rate reflects, well, I'm really trying to be nice here. I don't mean to insult anyone but the comparison can not be made. It's easier to do so, I will grant that...but with so many cities, counties, and even states not reporting in a uniform manner an accurate comparison cannot be made. Hope that helps...the police chief warned us in that letter to the editor that at the end of the following first year of using the new reporting model that our crime rate would significantly increase (if memory serves he estimates a 3-4 maybe even 5 fold increase then would level off and begin a slow decline) which it did. Several years later using the same consistent uniform reporting model in 2022 we saw another 11% decrease. People may get frustrated at such an honest answer which can be initially confusing if deep research is not individually taken by oneself (as this is too lengthy to attempt an explanation in the media) but that doesn't change the accuracy. Why other cities, counties and states do not report consistently using the FBI's recommended reporting model ... you'd need to ask them. Or better yet, ask their Chamber of Commerce if they'd want consistent FBI methodology in their crime figures known to the general public.
I live maybe thirty minutes away, for 29 years. I’ve always heard about crime being high but I’ve never seen it or know anyone who’s experienced it. I work over nights here and I’ve never had any trouble
These town is great for me i'm originally from St Louis the population is growing fast it's approximately 200,000 in town then you include the surrounding towns it's approximately 250,000 .
I live in Springfield for 3 years and moved from California and let me tell you guys this. It's big enough for it's size but the number thing I hear the most from people from other states is the restaurant food won't be the same from where you are from. Cost of living is cheaper the probably where you are from but remember pay wages are a lot lower. Crime rates are high but I never notice it to be hooest. Rental are high now so do your research before even thinking about moving to Springfield. Kansas city is more better with food and asian markets
Many manufacturers begging for well-paid employees...SRC (Springfield Remanufacturing and their suite of now 32 separate manufacturing companies, Loren Cook, Paul Mueller, etc, etc, etc...google Missouri Association of Manufacturers...job and career abound! You are welcome to come. See my reply above to J_in_Ca re the seemingly high crime figures.
Springfield is majority White and Republican if you don’t like it then move to St Louis. It annoys me when people complain about this type of stuff. No one is forcing you to live somewhere.
I am moving next week for Prime Inc CDL training and I would love to find things to do and make this my new home base per say as my home in FL and no friends or family I need at least a postal code and place to stay when my trainer wants to go home.
Do you happen to know Datema building supplies? They are relatives of me and are based in Springfield MO. My 89 year old grandpa would love to get in touch with them (I’m from Holland)

I have lived in Springfield Missouri for 50 years, I think it's one of the top 10 in the United States.

Springfield is recommended as an affordable place to live for seniors.
Absolutely!
I'm looking at Springfield as a place to move because of the low cost of living but wow the crime rate is really high.

I have lived here for about ten years my best advice is to run go to any place from here get away from this place asap

@@marcusfullerton3051 our random crime, which is large % in bigger cities, is very low. That’s the difference maker.
Thank you for making this video!! We are 90% sure we are moving there in a couple years. So this info is gold. 👍
Glad we provided you with some value!
I just looked this up to see what Missouri looks like because I'm moving to there
Awesome! Where at are you moving to in Missouri?
My daughters and I are considering moving there. We'll vacation they're this Summer! I plan to start my Equine Therapy business!!! I can't wait!!!🤗

My family and I are planning to move in the next few weeks. We are excited can’t wait to find a place?
That’s awesome! Where are you guys from?
Trying to find the best manufacturing companies there. I’m a blue collar guy, and yes I’ve been Googling companies, ie Kraft Hinez, etc 👍🏼

Fr it’s like moving to Baltimore City and complaining that everyone has black skin it’s ridiculous
@@Bkpr2233 exactly. Those liberals and black people in Springfield are so ignorant. Like it’s not a secret and do research before you move somewhere.
Thanks for this video . Actually moving there on July 14th
Awesome!
have you moved yet? if so, do you like it?
Sold! I want to move there forget OKC!!
Haha, let's get started!!
I am moving next week for Prime Inc CDL training and I would love to find things to do and make this my new home base per say as my home in FL and no friends or family I need at least a postal code and place to stay when my trainer wants to go home.
Planning on retiring there
In next 5 years
Awesome!
Springfield is recommended for Seniors as an affordable and attractive place to live.

Why in the world don't you tell people that Springfield is first and foremost a college town ? There are 9 colleges ! This is important to know.
I don’t drive and I come from the Windy City where bikes get stolen all the time.
I've lived in Springfield for about 7 years ready to move away from the city.
I hear ya!
i love it coming from so cal
Do you happen to know Datema building supplies? They are relatives of me and are based in Springfield MO. My 89 year old grandpa would love to get in touch with them (I’m from Holland)
Sure do...google them.
Monthly expenses as a student in Missouri? Mainly room cost
Remember this was a year ago
i have familly ties in rogersville but im Scottish. how easy would it be to move there ?
Will you be moving from Scotland?
I guess you've never seen Chestnut or Kansas Expressway between 3:30-6 PM. Nearly bumper to bumper.
Lived on Kansas expressway for 3 years after living in Kansas City so seems like chump change compared to bad KC traffic!
Brother, Im coming in a year. I am from Nepal. Are people racially friendly?
Absolutely!
D'OH
Springfield is the south of the Midwest lol
😂🤠

Would my Asian wife have a problem with racism there?
Absolutely not
@@livinginparadise850 thank you so much
No problem! I have an Asian friend and he’s had virtually no trouble. Glad I could help!
@@livinginparadise850 virtually? Lol
You have brought to my attention that I misunderstood the definition of that word ! Haha. He has had ZERO trouble 😂
