This.

Cities under 250k aren't listed.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that things got worse once BR elected a mayor who basically castrated the police department and instituted “police reform” aka hug-a-thug.

Dallas has the highest murder rate in Texas. Interesting.

What's happening? There was a time, back in the 90s, when NO was hands down #1.

I don't know. We'd have to get a response from our ATL posters. It just appears to me that over the years, the "good area/ bad area" line has been creeping slowly northward. at least in that part of town. It actually looks like the line is really a circle that it's diameter is just growing in all directions out from the city center. For example, years ago in the western part of town, Douglasville seemed pretty nice. Now, it looks rather shitty.
But this is all just perspective I have from the Interstates highways.
Others that know better can chime in.

St. Louis puzzles me mainly because I have never been there, other than an overnight layover stay by the airport. I hear it is bad. The city does a great job of making itself look wholesome. Baseball and Budwesier


Honestly St. Louis is an awesome city. All the violent crime in the Lou happens within a 4 block radius. Stay off the corner of Natural bridge and Shreve in STL and you have nothing to worry about

This is O'barry's plan, sprinkle a little in each mid-class neighborhood and through permeation, equilibrium goal will be met.

Where you near Washington square Park? Because I hear them walking around laughing in the middle of the night.laughing and shite.

I doubt they will do anything to me because unless they’re packing heat, which I doubt, because I am kinda scary but I don’t like it nonetheless.

I also am pretty sure I saw a drug deal last night at Maple and Dearborn. Some Asian kid was doing an exchange with two punks. Pissed me off at the Asian kid for inviting them into the area.

No, further north than that. This weekend is a total shite show, and last night was bad. This weather isn’t helping things.

St.Louis is BS.

It's one of the only Cities not part of a County, Burrough.

Which means they cannot count the white burbs, like Chicago and others can. If St.Louis city and County numbers were merged, St.Louis would fall to the late teens to 20's in per capita, and become the 9th largest city in America.
