the article said:Your Odds of Being a Victim
Why neighborhoods and not cities? Even the cities with the highest crime rates can have relatively safe neighborhoods, and thus it is less useful to generalize about an entire city. But using exclusive data developed by Dr. Schiller at NeighborhoodScout.com, and based on FBI data from all 17,000 local law enforcement agencies, our gallery counts down the 25 neighborhoods with the highest predicted rates of violent crime in America.
QUICK LINKS:
25 Most Dangerous Neighborhoods
* 25) Chicago, Ill. (Winchester, Ave./60th St.)
* 24) Chicago, Ill. (Wallace St./58th St.)

* 22) Orlando, Fla. (East-West Expy/Orange Blossom Trl.)
* 21) Cleveland, Ohio (Cedar Ave./55th St.)

My city, Dallas, made the list not once but twice. You guys up there are getting soft:mrgreen:

Dont worry, this was done pre-T.O. leaving town.:mrgreen:
Pshaw. Dallas is weak. Chi-town made it 4 times, wussy. Four times.
So, can we make any correlations based on these findings? Looks to me like the cities with the most anti-gun laws are the ones with the most violent neighborhoods in this country.

Gee.
Though I am perplexed about the Texas neighborhoods... I wonder if they're predominantly immigrant or some other abnormality.
To make that connection you would have to show that the gun laws are causing more violence and were not established as a reaction to lessen the already high violence.
Exactly which one of those cities makes it difficult for law abiding citizens to purchase guns? Florida has four on that list, two in the top ten, and getting guns is pretty easy both legally and illegally. I lived there for 30 years up until last Dec. and the rate of gun ownership has to be in 70% range.

I was tracking with you just fine until the last sentence there. We do just fine on the American-born violence, dude. In fact, none of the neighborhoods listed are areas with heavy immigrant populations, just FYI.
Where is North Philly?
Broad and Dauphin is North Philly. Nevertheless, I know for a fact it's not the ****tiest neighborhood in the city, let alone competitive nationally. I used to live about ten blocks from that inter section.
I know exactly where it is, but that is not really North Philly, North Philly. Temple U is not far off.
