I’m so proud. Not only are four of the top ten most dangerous cities within 90 minutes drive from my house, but the city where I work and my state capital are also in the top fifty two. Avalon was thrilled to find out the city where she grew up finished fifty-ninth. Norristown is only 20 minutes from my house. She’s hoping they can break into the top 50 next year.
I wonder how many of these cities have a black population above 30%?
I wonder how many of these cities are run by Democrats?

The places in S.C. have high rates of crime due to the blacks. In Charelston County Blacks accounted for 78% of the murders and were of course 90% of the time a victim.
I get a big chuckle listening to the local race hustlers talk about the war on blacks by the police etc when the real war is among themselves .
bb, you’d best print this off and keep it handy.
They should add Allentown – it’s collapsed into a real shit-hole. As my uncle Bob says: “It’s not a fit place for a white man.”
Sweet, three michigan cities are in the top 10.
If you go by violent crime per capita then a small city of 10,000 within my city would be listed below Detroit and bump Flint to the eighth spot, so four michigan cities in the top eight.
I had to look up Inkster MI, just a bit west of Detroit so that makes sense. Between the thugs and mooslums occupying the east side of Michigan and us white trash on the west side, we are a divided state.
Poor TE…….
What’s the worst city in the country that’s at least 90% `[non-Hispanic] white? My guess is Moody, Alabama.
Ah Card, you forget the bad parts of Grand Rapids, Kzoo, Muskegon, not to mention Benton Harbor. Many were just too small to make the list but it doesn’t make them less dangerous.
I live in the (formerly) whitest city in ‘murica, so no worries, yet.
Wow, I am proud, Michigan is kicking ass with a showing of 6 of the Top 50. And like I said, they apparently left out a few due to size considerations.
Coupled with the increase of two places to 2nd in the country for bed bugs, and WTG!
We are the armpit of this country. *sigh*
Wow! Only 12 cities on that list west of the Mississippi on that list in CA, TX, OK, IA and MO. None in my state or the entire PNW.
This one is dedicated to all you poor bastards on the eastern seaboard/I-95 corridor.
#26 is close….too close (as the Madagascar Penguins might say.)
4 from MA, all heavily minority and absolutely laden with drugs, a very bad mix. OTOH I would not be that scared walking through any of them during the day, at night not so much. I was married in Brockton (58), home of Rocky Marciano, lived there 2 years in the 1980’s, it was not so bad back then. Now most of these cities have been infused with Hispanics, most of whom like the city services, free WIC, SNAP, Section 8 and buses etc. Build it and they will come. Holyoke and Lowell have been over run with the invasion of the newly arrived youths from South America this summer, the schools are freaking out because of the additional services they need to provide without additional revenue. Fun stuff.
Bob.
I’m familiar wif a few of these. Riviera Beach=black. Norf Miami Bch=black. Homestead(I suspect what they really mean is Florida City)=black. Miami(city)=julios. Wif the exception of Miami, which I drive through every day to work, I would not venture into these outposts of Africa. WTF is YT doing? Why isn’t he on da list? Sheeeeit, he’s workin and paying taxes so my nigga can get real. He/she doesn’t have time for monkey shines because he/she is too fuckin tired at the end of the day. The sooner we cut out the welfare, SNAP cards, WIC, Section 8, &TC the better off we’ll be. You wanna come into my neighborhood and take my shit? Bring it on!
Is it too late to “pick our own cotton”? Maybe we can get this thing turned around.
7 in NJ.
Sounds low.
Come on ragman, we’re champs. 14 in our state, 6 in our metro, and 2 in my county. But this list is incorrect. the hellhole down here is called the cIty of miami gardens. It’s the area around the dolphin stadium. I believe it is 110% AA. It is the home base for every bad thing that can happen with a gun and a car.
I see Rocky Mount and Goldsboro NC – but I am surprised Durham didn’t make the list. I suspect Raleigh is an Agenda 21 city, destined for greatness, but I could be wrong.
As a former “Michigander” it is sad to see the place collapse – in the 60’s I swear Adrian was almost like Bedford Falls from that Christmas movie, It’s a Wonderful Life.
We, as a species, have built and abandoned cities for thousands of years – but it’s strange to have the generational knowledge [stories from older generations] of the town being built from immigrants by Up-State NY escapees from the burned-over district to a shit hole with 70% rental, a decade away from the Detroit syndrome.
So sad to see the potential evaporate…..
Tommy , we are to told to always have situation awareness especially in urban areas ,(black areas )I also carry guns .Not suppose to but I do it anyway.
45 yeas ago East St Louis was an all -American city. Now it is number 1. We all know why. Same true all over the country there is a lot of crime in Afroghanistan.
21 year old son just got a ccw permit and bought a OMFG hight point .45 for $200 bucks new. I refuse to ket him carry this piece of dreck and he is sporting a 4 inch gp100 with a laser. Damn kids don’t listen for shit.
Some of the advantages of living in the mountains of NC is we are 70 miles to the closest city on the list
(Spartansburg, SC), the blacks that live here (less than 2% of population) have assimilated into the local culture here so their crime rate is the same as whites, which is damn low, and everyone has guns and everyone knows everyone has guns.
I understand most folks can’t just pick up and go live where they want to due to jobs and family, but I hope those of you that are stuck in bad places will get your chance to get out before SHTF. Leave all the Progressives/Liberals behind to reap what they have sown.
How is Chicago only 82nd? Seems like it should be much higher up the list, makes me think this list is BS.
i live equidistant from 6,7 and 11
You wondered about the demographics of these cities. So did I.
So…
Over 30% Black 59%
of the remaining, noted that 14% had over 30% Hispanic
of the remaining noted that 5% had combined black/hispanic over 30%
As to Mayor/City Council, I was amazed at how hard political affiliation was to find.
My rules
Google mayor XXXX political party.
If I could not find it in 5 web sites, I quit
so
59% Democrat
3% Independent
12% Republican
26% ?????
Heh. Nothing in heavily Hispanic Arizona makes the list. Including Phoenix and Tucson.
Let me make one thing clear. Hispanic violence here is largely drug-related and directed at members of their own race, mostly Mexicans. Largely. No, let me make two things clear. Hispanics don’t like blacks. Never have, never will. This is not a friendly area for blacks.
And now you know why Arizona doesn’t make the list.

Hispanics and blacks seem to get along well in Texas.
Man, how come the gays and hipsters haven’t discovered that block, bought up buildings for pennies and started selling expensive coffee, expensive hamburgers, art, etc?
Richard Pryor wondered why Arizona had such a large group of blacks in prison when the black population of Arizona is so small.
You know why Hispanics don’t like blacks? Because they are racists. This is the reality of our racist ways: if a white guy shows up in a group of blacks, he is treated with disdain. If the same white guy shows up in a group of Hispanics, he is treated like a hero. They’ll call him gringo, boliyo, guero and so on but it is good natured sporting. We kiss white ass with subservience because we secretly believe the bullshit we were told since grade school; that we are white also.
I might go so far as to say, we are the most fucked up minority group there is because while we think we’re white, we hear that the white man is our oppressor. We are told we are a minority but we don’t want to believe it, we want to oppress blacks to prove our imaginary whiteness.
Lots of books have been written to explain this issue. In the end, I might say that we are like the kurds, unwanted in Iraq or Turkey.
West Hollywood? What, they have a criminal element among the gays?
Top 365 black on white hate murders that occurred in the U.S. in 2014
“Radical left-wing groups claim that black people live in fear of white racists. Yet, actual white on black murders are an extreme rarity. We found 365 black on white murders occurring in 2014 thus far.”

How did New Orleans, LA and Birmingham, AL get passed over for this list? Both have higher violent crime rates than even rathole St. Louis. Yet they appear nowhere on this list.
I’d really like to know what metrics were used to rate these places.
Overthecliff, I do not see how anyone can say that E. St. Louis was an “all-American city” 45 years ago.
It was an absolute rathole by the mid-sixties. I know, because I lived across the river in St Louis, which was beginning to come apart at the seams and which was listed from 1964 on as one of the top 5 cities in the U.S. with the most murders. However, St. Louis was a dream city compared to E. St. Louis, which was so dangerous that you didn’t even want to drive down State St between St Louis and Belleville. The splendid E. St. Louis High School building, which was the pride of the place when it went up in the 50s, had already been destroyed by vandals, and all the white blue-collar folk were moving out in herds by 1965, taking whatever they could get for their little houses.
E. St Louis wasn’t a very good place to begin with. It was totally mob-run by the 50s, and the municipal corruption, and thieving by town officials, was endemic. It was, I remember, rather disreputable, or at least my parents thought so, because of all the mangy bars and all the other vice. There were some good jazz acts my young parents would take in at ragged little night clubs there. The place was visibly and rapidly deteriorating by the early 60s. There was a rather famous restaurant-tavern there that we used to like to go to on Sundays when I was a child, and I was struck by the shabbiness of the houses on the surrounding streets. In other words, this town went down the tubes the same way that Granite City and Cicero did- the places were completely owned by the mob by the late 40s, and the mobsters proceeded to loot the treasury, causing services to deteriorate steeply and taxes to go through the roof. The original respectable residents fled, and by the late 60s, these places were Municpal Scorched Earth, places that could support no one and nothing, and the only remaining inhabitants were the blacks.
Our cities all really peaked right around 1930. When the depression set in, nothing more got built, and after the war, a new trend was in place: mass suburbanization. By the 50s, the disinvestment was visible, as middle income people, lured by the FHA and VA loans, and the new highways, headed out to their new little country estates in all the new auto suburbs springing up around the cities. By the mid-sixties, most cities still had a lot of nice middle income neighborhoods and the crime and blight were not yet far gone, yet the handwriting was on the wall. Nothing new was being built and you could scarcely get financing for a house in the city, no matter how intact the neighborhood was. A vast number of my grammar school classmates’ families were planning on moving to “the county” in time to get their kids enrolled in high schools there. The End was well underway.
