Oakland, CA 19.5%
Everything you type just proves my point.
Oakland benefits from being within the Bay Area.
However, the fact that it is located within the Bay Area and still has a high poverty rate and homicide/crime rate is just sad. Not even a good economy can save Oakland.

Philadelphia and Pittsburgh both have far more people in need of saving than Oakland, love.

Oakland also had 127 homicides last year. More than half as philly (which is 4 times as large) and three times as many as Pittsburgh (41). Such a neat place to live.
