Could you post population demographics and see if there are any correlation?
Half of the top ten are among the least diverse. Most of the top ten are bottom 20% of diversity. None are in the top 15.

Please don't tell me you actually think this plays a factor is rankings...
Uh, it does, your dumb kneejerk reaction to that reality notwithstanding
Amorphous measures of "racial bias" are included in crime category. Equality is 40% of the opportunity category rating, and is measured in things that may have nothing to do with actual equality under law, like wage gaps and disparities among the races in education and income.
