Chicago's MSA: 6.6 murders per 100,000
San Francisco's MSA: 4.6 murders per 100,000
Is that the whole Bay, no, but I also never claimed it would be because I haven't seen a complete Bay Area statistic. San Jose's MSA's rate is also half that of San Francisco's.
Yes, because a city with more than 400,000 is somehow too small to calculate a rate per 100,000 people and compare

Just as I suspected, the Bay Area homicide rate is almost half that of Chicagoland.
Yea, that's totally "the same" there.
Which is something I never said

For the next year list perhaps everybody could post their cities' numbers monthly to cut down on the pages (Recommendation).
Since this is the final day of 2015 , Let's organized it by each region's 10 highest count cities. Ex:
Northeast: 1. NYC- 339, 2. Etc, 3. Etc,
Midwest: 1. Chicago- 500
West: 1. L.A- 280
South: 1. Baltimore - 343
Everybody be safe, R.I.P to loved ones, and Happy New Years!

You would much rather do it by rate because NY is the safest in the northeast and I wouldn't even include Baltimore in the south.
Really haven't sensed that in this thread to any great extent
I haven't seen anyone brag about how dangerous their cities are either. If anything I sense the opposite. Most people are ashamed of their cities being dangerous and ghetto, and put down other cities, such as the recent battle between Chicago and the Bay Area.
Meanwhile, luckily Atlanta has been getting left alone. I haven't seen the last two weeks of the year, but hopefully it's still in the double-digits. I really hope for a huge drop in 2016. I really would like too see Atlanta with less than 80 or 70, but of course the lesser the better. Wishing everyone a safe and Happy New Year!
