Go, Baltimore!! Number 12 :( How sad. I guess it's weird, when you live there it doesn't seem that bad.

Tenth for Cleveland.

They showed the deserted streets of downtown, but they should have gone to the East side where most of the violent crimes occur.

We need more police!!!

You'll be happy to know that study names Mission Viejo as the safest in the US:dance:

Study names Mission Viejo safest city in U.S.


A controversial new study based on annual FBI crime statistics names Mission Viejo the safest city in the nation.

Lake Forest ranked 10th and Irvine was No. 11.

The rankings are based on statistics for murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary and vehicle theft and include about 400 cities of at least 75,000 residents that reported crime data to the FBI.

It does make me happy :) Especially when I walk to my car at night!! Good to know that it's not just a false sense of security here. I'll have to see if Laguna Niguel is on the list.

Just wait till you finally get here, JBean! And then try cutting in line for the Early Bird Special buffet: you'll find out what "raising cane" really means!

Of course the wild life has to end by 8, 'cause we don't like to drive at night...

Regarding #14 Compton. This is the most dangerous city I have ever been to. I have been there several times and every single time there was at least one murder.
My kids used to play football against the Compton teams and we would go up there.Just during the football game, parents cars would be stolen!
There would be police heli's circling the stadium and we would read the next day that there were shootings right outside the stadium. We finally started all traveling together in big busses so that we could stay safe.
I hate Compton!

ETA: just googled Compton news..first article:

This is how bad off I am...

When I heard this on the news the other day, it just made me homesick! :doh: :D

We've had lots of good times hanging out and partying in Detroit. Ya just gotta know how to act, and where to go. (And, where NOT to go)

Flint? Nope. I didn't like going to Flint in the daytime.

Personally I was shocked that New Orleans wasnt on there. It has gotten ridiculous over there. And did anyone notice the rape statistics? That is just staggering isnt it?

St. Louis always makes the list, but there are a few small areas that are just horrid, but many more areas that are super safe. Our bad neighborhoods are just really, really bad.
