New York the biggest city by pulation has less murders than Chicago, Los Angeles the second biggest, Chicago the third biggest, Houston the fourth biggest, it probably has similar numbers to Philly but definitely more than Phoenix.
Philly has more homicides than all those cities except Chicago so far.
The fact that NYC has less murders than the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th (I know Phoenix passed up Philadelphia but most won't care till 2020 census) biggest cities in the U.S is even more shocking.

Times Square, NYC hype and tourist money flowing into NYC you got to lower murder rate for that
What does the actual rate mean though? Does that mean there's currently 19.46 murders for every 100,000 in Wilmington, for example?
Yes.
