One thing to look out for: it’s pretty hard to objectively compare city crime rates because the city boundaries might include nicer or worse neighborhoods that dilute or concentrate the crime rates.

That’s why DC is at the top of the list… The way the city was defined, it’s the “city-est” city on the list.

You could also look at St Louis, MO vs East St Louis, IL. would it be rational to conclude that Illinois is DRAMATICALLY worse based on this data?
