It's a slide show so I'll save you the time from clicking through each slide.

quote:

Sifting through crime rates can be a difficult business. These rates came from data listed collected from City-Data.com, which focuses on murders, rapes, robberies, assaults, burglaries, thefts, auto thefts and arson.

The numbers in this slideshow are crimes per 10,000 people, meaning for every 10,000 people, there were approximately 54 (in Kentwood) to 98 (in Bastrop) crimes.

This list is focused on cities or town with populations larger than 2,500.

Many people will be shocked that the three main cities in Louisiana aren't on this list. All of those places have high crime rates as well, but they're not as high as the places in this slideshow
.

12. Kentwood
11. Denham Springs
10. Winnfield
9. West Monroe
8. Natchitoches
7. Marksville
6. Monroe
5. Eunice
4. Hammond
3. Alexandria
2. Opelousas
1. Bastrop

This has to be a bogas arse list without Baton Rouge and New Orleans on it. Hammond and Eunice at 4 & 5??? C'mon man

it's not a bogus list. even in the blurb you quoted, it tells you what the metric is based on. crime per 10k people. pretty straight forward imo

No, actually most of us living on the North side of Red River know that if you're going into Alexandria you best be packing.

After the past 2 years, Lake Charles is definitely on there.

Opelousas will make you think twice during the day in some places.

Still a stupid list. Their metric is busted when BR and NO don't make it.

Probably the least surprising of the list to me.
