I agree with that. I love NOLA. I love the house. I could clear at least 600k on my house here. I own lots of guns and would stay home and protect it

Have grown kids and grandkids 40 mins out of NOLA so it is a possibility. Needs a lot of finish work.

Mexican cities are out of control. Makes me think of obama’s fast and furious gun scandal

Seems like Mandella has the same effect in SA as the MLK boulevards do here.

Baton Rouge would be around 21. The rate dropped compared to 2021. Jackson would be #7. I assume this list has a minimum for population.

What's interesting about Cape Town is the place where the murders happen is really far from the actual city. The whole western Cape gets rolled up into "Cape Town" when doing the stats. The bad shite is over in Mitchells Plain, though there are general security issues.


Yup. There is a massive shanty town outside of Cape Town. Like, “dozens of amateur splices from a single electrical pole run to corrugated tin shacks” shanty town. As soon as I saw the stat, I knew they had included it.

Man this is terrible.

Anyway had an early dinner at the Pelican Club over the weekend, the Quarter was packed.

If you go try the Trio Of Duck, outstanding.

I think the most important stat would be how many people were murdered by complete strangers (robberies and what not). Chicago has lots of shootings, but they seem to be mostly gang vs. gang. (I suspect it's the same in Mexico with cartel wars).

So it would be interesting to know how many of these murders in each city were gang vs. gang (or targeted in some way) vs. just random civilians being killed.

I went to LSU and students get murdered in baton rouge, and not by their classmates, by thugs. So I would say it does affect people.


I also lived in new olreans, and from my knowledge, there isnt really neighborhoods shielded from the shite in the city proper. You could get carjacked just waiting to pull into your gate or going to lunch. get your skull crushed going to costco.

There's no possible way this is true. The OT has taught me that NO and BR are the only 2 cities with homicides and no other city has them.


Lol at you fricking tools flexing on being the highest-ranked US city. What a fricking disgrace.

Madison Wisconsin is run by democrats and is one of the safest major cities in the country. You and everyone reading this knows why that is. Don't be a coward. Say what the real reason is.

Demographics. Same reason Boise has like 4 murders per year and BR has 140 despite being pretty similar in size.

BR averages over 500 shootings every year since 2017. That’s not surprising at all. Closer you get to Florida Boulevard, or people that live in Mid-City you’ll hear shots fired weekly.

Imagine what the folks who live on Aster St encounter

I've probably heard clear gun shots 5 times at our current house. But I'd have never heard them inside the house so who knows how many that I would have heard had I been outside at the time.

I’m not going to flex because it’s not a good thing, but I don’t know anyone in NOLA that is honstly concerned with murders. You can’t stop these morons from killing each other.

Stop the carjackings and robberies and clean up the homelessness. That’s the issues that plague the city as a whole.
