Technically that goes to NY county since NYC alone ended with 2,200+ and that's not including the rest of the state.
L.A County all time high is 2,589,That's way more than the 5 boroughs ever had
Rocked by gang violence, civil unrest and a proliferation of lethal weapons, 1992 was the deadliest year in Los Angeles County history, officials said Monday.
Last year's 2,589 homicides, based on a tally by the Los Angeles County coroner's office, was up about 8% from the year before and represented enough slain people to fill the downtown Ahmanson Theatre to more than capacity.
So what about the smaller cities like New Orleans and Compton ?
The murder rate was higher but the violent crime rate was higher in Atlanta. DC murder rate in the 90's was higher than NO and Compton but Atlanta violent crime was higher than DC.
(CNN)Here's one thing you may not think about when landing at Los Angeles International Airport: Just 11 miles away sits the biggest jail system in America.
With an inmate population the size of a private college and a budget just north of $700 million, the L.A. County Jail is as sprawling and as complex as Los Angeles itself.
That's bigger than Rikers Island & Dade County jail combined.
When you talk L.A,it's best you also include the county because the Crips took over damn near every city in the L.A area.
Gangs from every city meet up in the L.A County jail system,
1 street separates L.A city from Inglewood, so if an L.A Crip crosses the street to commit a homicide,you're telling me that doesn't count because the body dropped in Inglewood ?
I'm not even talking about that. What I'm saying is Blacks in Chicago accounted for more murders than LA County blacks. Even in 2016, Chicago blacks accounted for 626 murders with a population of 792,000 while LA County blacks averaged 536 murders from 1987-1998 with a population of 992,974. Therefore, blacks in Chicago are more murderous than LA County Blacks.

Only 1,944 of those homicides are criminal murders so it still goes to NY because NY officially went over 2,000 criminal murders. LA County never in history surpassed 2,000 murders. New York did it twice and NY state did it 14 times.
The murder rate was higher but the violent crime rate was higher in Atlanta. DC murder rate in the 90's was higher than NO and Compton but Atlanta violent crime was higher than DC.
Yep, New Orlens' average annual violent crime rate during the 90's wasn't even among the top 10 worst. On a semi related note, over the last 28 straight years in which Louisiana's murder rate has been highest among states, there wasn't a single year that it's violent crime rate was the highest among states.
