Iowa is close to Welsh, La.
I was shocked when I drove through the Welsh ghetto recently. Detoured off I-10 bc of a wreck, expecting just a small country town. Looked like just another disgusting run down inner city ghetto.

Damn is Welsh really that bad? I thought it was just some small town off the interstate.

I've never heard of any of these cities.

That's only because you don't understand Mitch's new system of having NOPD mark item numbers "Necessary Action Taken" instead of assigning a signal code, which is what the FBI uses to track numbers.

Only ones that belong on that list.
How did Iowa, LA make this list but Ferriday didn't?

It was actually a pretty big deal in the summer, they first discovered it when an item on a shooting that left a guy paralyzed was marked NAT because the victim was "gone" when they arrived...meaning at the hospital. Should have been a 34S or (27)30, but this way it wouldn't even be reported to the FBI's UCR.

Somebody doesn't understand stats.
Chicago for example had 400 violent crimes per 100000 people in an article I just looked up dated in March 2016.
That first town in WV has 1400 people.
6 crimes there would beat Chicago's rate.
Every crime there is worth 70 per 100000. The fluctuations in small numbers make the comparison meaningless.

Holy shite Cairo! Most of my family came from there....and yes it's currently a shite hole. Drugs and unemployment ruined it. It was a nice town in the 40's
At one point it was thought to be bigger than Chicago because of its proximity to the Ohio and Mississippi rivers intersection. Alas it was not to be

Wellston ain't no joke.
My Uncle used to take the city bus to school in highschool. Only being a freshman he took the wrong connection and got off in Wellston. After being off the bus for less than 10 minutes he was robbed and stabbed (only a flesh wound). It's only gotten worse in the last 45 yeara.

Making a list per capita and including really small cities is bound to overstate things. One murder/suicide in a small city and suddenly its more dangerous than Juarez.

I refuse to pronounce the name of that fricking town as "Ioway". Stupid fricking hicks. It's "Iowuh"; deal with it.

Chicago isn't even among the top twenty among major US cities and isn't among the top five in the Midwest. It's a lot less violent per capita than New Orleans and Baton Rouge, for instance. Don't get me wrong - I'd probably rather live in a lot of these places than the worst parts of Chicago, but...
It's just a massive city with some hellaciously bad parts that get a lot of press, but when taking per capita into effect, Chicago is going to come out looking a lot better than what its perception is. Most of the city is middling, and a good chunk of it is some of the nicest places to live in the United States.
Think of it this way: the far Southside and the near Westside (the two really bad parts of Chicago) probably have a combined population greater than that of either the city of New Orleans (~350,000) or the city of Baton Rouge (~230,000). However, those two places combined only account for about 15% of the city of Chicago's population. The Northside of Chicago - which is probably 1.5 or 2 million people by itself - is going to statistically overwhelm the violent areas by itself in these sorts of analyses. Chicago isn't Detroit or Baltimore or St. Louis or Oakland in that sense; most of the city is actually OK, and a lot of it is super damn nice. It's just that it's a huge city and the bad parts are really, really bad.
