Given that 2016 was the worst year for homicides in nearly two decades in Chicago, it comes as little surprise that the city has a reputation as one of the most violent places in the United States. Last year, there were 762 murders, 3,550 shooting incidents and 4,331 shooting victims with an average of 12 people shot every single day. In fact, the Windy City experienced more murders than New York and Los Angeles combined last year with the number of homicides there since 2001 eclipsing U.S. war dead in Iraq and Afghanistan by late November.

Even though it had more murders than any other U.S. city last year, is Chicago’s violent reputation entirely justified? According to nonprofit news outlet The Trace, Chicago is actually far behind other major U.S. cities in homicides per 100,000 residents. It found that between 2010 and 2015, New Orleans had a homicide rate of 46.9 per 100,000 inhabitants compared to just 16.4 in Chicago. As bad a problem as Chicago has on its hands, this metric does show that many other cities actually have higher levels of violence.

Pretty sure an overlaid graph of cities by percentage of population that’s black would match perfectly. It’d take one hell of a brave high school student to produce that double graph for the science fair.

Given blacks commit half the murders, that is a good guess.

Probably correct. We know a kid from Chicago, he indicates the city is clearly demarcated. Don’t cross the “black line”, in his words, and you’re fine.

I was thinking about this the other day while the media and politicians discussed a travel ban to North Korea because one man tried to steal a government sign and the horrors.

Go to Oakland and flash the wrong colors, dead, go to any big shitty and take a wrong turn, dead by gun shot or a knock out, game…

Where are the calls for travel bans to liberal run American urban shit hole death zones?

Wonder what the most dangerous cities for Whites are?

But it would probably be racist to publish that information.

For that matter, it is probably racist to ask the question.

So just ignore that I asked it.

Blacks mostly kill blacks. Mostly. I would avoid Detoilet, for instance.

CHIMPTASTIC graph ! Tells the real story without mentioning the who, what and why.

That is just their idle rate; wait until we have hyperinflation like Venezuela for the same communistic reasons.

hahaha. “Idle Rate” shall go into the lexicon immediately. Oh my, what’s ahead will make Sub-Saharan Africa an also-ran if only because that area is accustomed to death-by-neighbor since time immemorial. When the mayors and governors offer up the news that the cupboard is bare and you live nearby you better load up your women folk and gold and get to a defensible island, or something.

rhs- We get to Venezuela levels and that chart would be off the page. Nobody would be safe……in any city here in the glorious USA!USA!USA!.

As one who goes to the big cities I have learned to avoid the black areas if possible.Go in early say at daybreak and out before rush hour traffic.Most of the crimes and murder take place at night.Go in early and get out as soon as possible and try to maintain situation awareness at all times.So far so good.

What’s was the movie where the guys car broke down and he had to survive walking home?

The reason Milwaukee beat Chicago is because
elements of Chicago come in all the time (1 h drive)
to exploit the less sophisticated (daring) blacks.

Proves me good for leaving, i loathe going there
but I have to = Mom.

I lived in LA when the LA Riots took place. Even though I saw the smoke rising, I had business to do in an industrial area just north of the smoke so I tried to get there. Got stopped. Sounds foolish now, but I drove through black areas and did business with blacks back then and I was unafraid to do it that day. Later I spoke with blacks I knew and some of them had tears in their eyes as they looked down without saying much. I remember holding hands with one lady who worked at a warehouse I frequented. She lost a lot that day. No large grocer stayed around for one thing. Junk food places everywhere, though. The blacks who worked for a living and led decent, moral lives were all around back then. Then came the do-gooders and the reformers and the social workers and the pea-brained parasites in the political system. No going back, I guess. What a tragedy.

You actually have to work rather hard to “cross the line” in Chicago. This town is huge, 271 sq miles, and the Badlands lie far to the south, and west, as the old “inner city” areas close to downtown have long ago been cleaned up and redeveloped. Sadly, there DOES exist one reason for a visitor to visit, say, the Garfield Park area, one of the city’s worst- it contains the famous Garfield Park Conservatory, which is a very beautiful conservatory with many rare specimens; and the Museum of Science & Industry is on the far south lake front in the Hyde Park neighborhood, a tiny island of beautiful architecture, fine homes, and a heavily black middle class floating in a sea of blight and crime in neighborhoods immediately to the south and west. Visit these two places in the daytime only.

There are a few tiny pockets of problems on the north side, but they are disappearing rapidly. You are MOSTLY pretty safe. I’ve never been bothered even though I have lived in one of the dodgier pockets on the north lake front, and have had to be on the streets quite late at night. However, being a woman and aware of my own relative defenselessness, and not wanting to have to explain why I blew someone’s face off, I am alert and aware of my surroundings when I’m walking around, something I learned to do long ago in a much more dangerous city, St Louis, where the crime is much more random.

92% of all Chicago murder victims are black males, and most of the remaining victims are black females, or hispanic males & females. Your biggest danger as a white person happening into one of their neighborhoods, is catching a bullet not intended for you.

Any statistic that encapsulates a specific “city” is someone deceptive as all of these cities vary greatly in their population and area covered. Atlanta, for instance, only has a population of roughly 473,000 people and covers only 134 sq. miles. If you talk about the greater Atlanta area, then you jump to 5.7 million people and many hundreds of square miles. LA on the other hand has 3.9 million people in the official city limits of 469 sq miles but includes 13.1 million people if you count the greater LA metropolitan area. I’m not saying that Atlanta is a safe place to live. Indeed nearly EVERY crime story on the news comes from within the city limits, but the city of Los Angeles incorporates some very low crime areas, heavily white areas, etc. within its official city limits, while most of the whites and money live outside of the quite small city limits of Atlanta. And even within Atlanta there are clearly worse areas and “better” areas. Just saying.
