Not surprising - there's nothing to steal and everyone's related.

Looks like College Station/Bryan metro is about 7.76 per 1,000. Oh. Bryan is one of worst towns in Texas for violent crime. It’s only 4 miles away. Oh.

So many idiots on the Rant want to move the SEC title game out of Atlanta (because it's supposedly a shithole) to Nashville yet the latter has a higher violent crime rate.

What year? And they actually share a boundary.
Wiki - violent crime rates per 100,000 for 2019
BR - 1022.29 (38.26 homicide rate)
College Station- 508.5 (3.1 homicide rate)
Bryan - 397.6 (1.3 homicide rate)
For at least 2019 Bryan would have lowered rate a little for the two.
Also,
For 2019 amongst the top 100 populous cities BR was 20th in violent crime rate including 5th in homicide per capita rate. For the violent crime rate BR literally beat up 80 places on the list including DC, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Newark, Cincinnati, Buffalo, LA, Miami, Dallas, Mobile, Reno, Jersey City, and North Las Vegas.
Baton Rouge was 8th in property crime rate and 9th for combined violent and property crimes on the same 2019 list on Wikipedia.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_cities_by_crime_rate_(60,000%E2%80%93100,000)
But maybe Baton Rouge has improved since 2019

2021 & 2022 were the most violent years in the city's history
Murder is way down so far in 2023 for whatever reason. I'm not rooting for it to go back up or anything. I'm just not sure why because nothing has really changed.

Oh my. BR decent shape. Some here either watch too many BR proud commercials or have never travelled anywhere. BR is a shite hole and has been that way for sometime.

I wonder what Tuscaloosa’s would be if you back out those committed by UA athletes.

You're so right. Nobody wants to live in Auburn. That's why it's the 13th fastest growing city in the country, tops in the state, and the only SEC town in the top 20.
I wish it were not so. It's big enough already, but it's going to keep growing.

I think you missed that was my exact point with links as well.

This is like saying Northwestern in Chicago has a high crime rate. I’d love to see the numbers if you remove NBR from the equation.

racist.... but correct!

870,000 metro area. Number 66 market in the US.
Kind of right there between big and medium sized city.
I know it is fun to rip on the city. There are lots of areas that used to be nice that are now ghetto. If you grew up in one of those areas I understand being pissed. In spite of that, there continues to be a ton of very vibrant areas that are growing and flourishing. It is holding on for now. My fear is when Hillary Moore retires we get a Soros DA. Sort of like swapping out Kip for Broome.

Knoxville at the top is also a surprise. I definitely feel safer there than BR, but I reckon that's just a result of being in the "right places".
The vast majority of the violent crime here is in East Knoxville... it's not spread out like BR.

I mean, take LSU (and Southern) sports out of the equation, and name the highlights of things to do. And don't list "proximity to New Orleans", I mean specifically the BR area.
