Top 10 Most Dangerous Cities in America
The United States is in bloody times. Homicides rose 37% from May to June in 20 major U.S. cities. In New York, the homicide rate is up 30% from 2019, and Chicago has just experienced #nguyhiemnhat months since the early 1990s, including 106 people shot and 14 killed in just one weekend. On the other hand, however: overall #toipham in the United States is down compared to this time last year, and #toiphambaoluc has been going down for three decades; In fact, since 1993, the violent crime rate has fallen by almost three-quarters, from 80 per 100,000 to 23. However, there are still hot spots. Let's take a look at #10thanhphonguyhiemnhatoHoaKy, based on violent crime rates (including murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assaults). Since the sources that provide such figures vary widely — often due to political bias — we'll rely on the Federal Bureau of Investigation's most recent comprehensive figures, from 2018.

Violent City – Stockton, California
History of violence in Stockton
Far beyond the common crime countries such as Rockford, Illinois and Albuquerque, New Mexico, the city of Stockton, California is a city with a small population but full of violence. Although there are many larger cities in the most populous states in the United States - Los Angeles, San Diego, Sacramento - this central northern California city of just 312,000 people is the only city in the top 10 most dangerous cities. most dangerous in the United States, with 1,386 violent crimes per 100,000 residents. The reason is probably because Stockton fell on hard times after the 2008 financial crisis; in 2018, the city's unemployment rate of 7% is significantly higher than the national figure; post-COVID, since then it has grown to almost 15% compared to 10% nationally. However, as featured in the 2020 documentary “Stockton on My Mind,” the city is seriously trying to get out of the recession. Led by the city's youngest (and first black) mayor, Michael Tubbs, 30, Stockton, among other initiatives, has called for private funds to test the revenue plan basic entry; organize ex-prisoners to keep peace between gangs; and shop for donations for scholarships for the city's poorest high school students.

Crime-ridden poor city - Milwaukee, Wisconsin
All-night violent protests in Milwaukee
Milwaukee means "good land," but unfortunately, its appearance on this list may indicate otherwise. Looking for the underlying cause, researchers have shown racial disparities, even for America, to be extreme: Milwaukee is considered the country's most segregated city. Even so, regardless of ethnicity, the average poverty rate twice that of the country as a whole is also a major factor, as is the city's ongoing struggles with the opioid epidemic that is rampant in the US.

Low quality of life city - Little Rock, Arkansas with many criminal gangs
Crime bosses in Little Rock, Arkansas
There really isn't a good way to put it: Little Rock is a city burdened with a reputation for not being up to standards of living. Arkansas is just ahead of West Virginia and Mississippi in median household income, and only those two states plus Louisiana have low-educated populations. Little Rock is the capital of Arkansas, as well as its largest city; in fact, it's Arkansas' only city with a population of 197,000, having six digits - a testament to its sparseness and lack of public appeal. The city's violent crime rate is 1,446 per 100,000 people, almost four times the national average, and property crimes like theft... - even more serious: with 6,547 individuals Crime per 100,000 residents, Little Rock ranks third among US cities with a population of 100,000 or more, and ranks first among other cities on this list. More than most other small cities, Little Rock's crime problem is gang-related including groups affiliated with the Bloods and their longtime rivals, the Crips. Gangs have a long history in the city; following the sensational 1994 documentary “Gang War: Bangin’ in Little Rock,” the city quadrupled its police force and gang activity dwindled. Unfortunately, early advances proved to be short-lived in a city with few resources and even fewer opportunities.

City Full of Death - Cleveland, Ohio
Interviewing locals about West Cleveland crime bosses
As Drew Carey can attest, Cleveland also has murders, assaults, and rapes. The violent crime rate is 1,449 per 100,000 residents, just a fraction higher than Little Rock's and similarly, four times the national average. First, the city has lost more than a quarter of its population since 1990, shrinking from more than half a million to just under 385,000. It's no surprise that those who leave Cleveland's worsening living conditions behind tend to have the means to move to the suburbs, while continuing to work in the tech and healthcare sectors. flourishing in the city. In another world (perhaps a “third world” would be more appropriate) 39% of Clevelanders live below the poverty line. The childhood poverty rate is 50.5%, higher than any other American city with at least 250,000 residents. In fact, there is little chance of crime reduction in a place where poverty is as pervasive as Cleveland. To better understand its intricacies, a recent study divided Cleveland and other Ohio metro areas into neighborhoods. What they discovered was incredibly bleak and predictable: reverse genocide (sometimes called “white flight”), deepening poverty in formerly involved areas , and poverty persists in regions where middle-income crises persist.

Most murderous cities - Kansas City, Missouri
Kansas City has one of the worst violent crime rates in the nation.
Kansas City is quintessentially American. A cattle town dating back to its founding, the city is home to some of the most famous steakhouses in the country, many of which are a short distance from the slaughterhouse that supplies the day's meat. Kansas City is also the proud home of the Negro League Baseball Hall of Fame, which honors some of the greatest players in America's greatest game - players who didn't get to compete in Leagues. The profession was white until the late 1940s. But the problem of crime was rampant, with a violent crime rate of 1,590 per 100,000. This figure is 318% higher than the national average. Homicide is a particular danger, with Kansas City suffering record or near-record killings spanning five years, often with firearms. A recent federal crime-solving effort - dubbed Operation Legends after four-year-old LeGend Taliferro was shot dead in his bed - has been welcomed by local and state officials, despite although some civil rights organizations have expressed opposition to federal agents investigating local crimes.
