So Knoxville has a higher crime rate than all the small towns across America?

No shite.

Compare that to all the "cities" and get back to me.

Or just stop relying on neighborhood scout's quick google snippet.

ETA: All the cities in NC and FL give the same bullshite lines about crime rates.

With a crime rate of 34 per one thousand residents, Jacksonville has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 30.



quote:

Orlando has a violent crime (murder, rape, robbery, assault) rate of 8.28 per 1,000 residents. This is higher than the national average for violent crimes. Keep in mind that these numbers of violent crimes include the dangerous neighborhoods in Orlando that are not visited by most tourists.


quote:

According to NeighborhoodScout's analysis of FBI reported crime data, your chance of becoming a victim of one of these crimes in Tampa is one in 178. NeighborhoodScout's analysis also reveals that Tampa's rate for property crime is 16 per one thousand population.



All just super quick pulls from google. Apparently even shitty arse Jacksonville is safer than cities in TN (number per 1,000).

Now make a comment that this data isn’t right and xyz has more accurate data to make yourself feel better when in the end, that the majority of large southern cities have shitty crime on a high level. Some states are better than others. Just not TN. Especially when you’re trying to throw a city away because it borders Arkansas (which doesn’t change the state it’s in).
