I live in the Twin Cities and I think would challenge the Bloomington pick.
Great marketing information. If my an area I represented was on the list, I would be broadcasting it to all my clients.
you all are crazy an that list is shit. does no one remember those cops get shot in parkland at that forza its never safe in tacoma an it never will be. always watch your six cuz its crazy tacoma should be on the top ten worst cities of the world
Wow, was surprised not to see Spokane on there but at least Seattle is there
Thx for the info!
yahhhh, I would DEFINITELY challenge the number 1 and 2 spots. I lived in Milwaukee, now Cedarburg outside it, and that city is just crap. SO much of it has such an unsafe feel, BUT I will say the police force has been making it safer. The crime rates are down for sure, but NOT PROPERTY CRIME…and armed robberies was sky rocketing in the neighborhood I lived in right before I moved out.
Minneapolis I heard has been having problems with gangs and the crime rates were soaring as well….
idk who published this one, but the first two shouldnt be on there for sure at least I think!
Ya i live in Minneapolis and you cant even wear a hat in a bar. Cause you might get killed.
Wow milwaukee should definatly now be on their….
i live in one of the "safe" parts and my neighbor was locked in the trunk of their own car and that car was driven into a river.
whoever wrote this needs to visit these places
wow who ever wrote this needs to come and vist these places they put providence and new bedford and fall river up there dont u know those or the worse sities in southern new england in providence we have had 23 murders this year and 90% of em where between 16-23 and mot of em where all based on gang violence
you cant wwalk the streets pass 11 in the west end of providence if u ain t from there nor the south side or chad brown just last wensday a 16 year old got killed and that same day jut a few hours later a 28 year old got killed right in front of his house on his porch while smokin
Minneapolis won't be anymore this year.. we're on our 6th homocide this year.. right now.
I do love Minnesota though… for the most part
i thought new york was the safest city.
Not true. I have lived in two of those areas and have never felt safe after dark. Where as, I have been in (major) cities not on that list where it is very safe.
Cincy should not be on their for sure!
Some cities in the USA were very violent in up to 80 years. New York was a reference to the lower crime rates.
omg where is maine? Like a lot of cities in Maine are pretty safe. Cept portland lewiston or agusta yaknow
Why the hell is Cincinnati and Cleveland on this list? Especially Cleveland. Cincinnati and Cleveland are one of the most dangerous cities in Ohio and the US. In Cincinnati last month, there were 5 murders in 5 days. And Cleveland is the 7th most dangerous city in the US. You are seriously trippin. You might as well put Detroit on the list too.
Maybe Cincy should not be on there but Cleveland definitely should not be on the list.
lol florida is never on the safest!!! florida is always on the most dangerous
New York is safe???
minnapolis use to be called murderapolis, there are alot of gangs there and its connected to st.paul,mn where there are more gangs. this website should be deleted—false information here!!!
These rankings are always, and will always, be based on statistics. Anecdotal evidence will never be counted, no matter how many people say 'OMG Cincy?! 5 murders in 5 days!!!' it means nothing unless it's a very small town. The Cincinatti metro is pretty big, clearly, the crime per 100,000 residents is fairly low. Same with NYC. I'm sure there is a lot more crime there than in many cities, but it so huge and has so many people, per 100,000 it's very low.
I've worked in the Seattle, Tacoma, Bellevue area for thirty years while packing a concealed Beretta 94. Never had a chance to display it or shoot a scumbag. Guess I'll have to move to the east coast for that.
Maybe the difference is that we allow concealed carry permits and a lot of Westerners do just that to keep things honest and help enforce the laws.
