No, Austin has 27. I think he mistyped or misread it.
You're right, Austin is 27/2.85. It was this link, which has just been updated in the last 24 hours but still only has 16 reports, that I initially saw that only had 7 homicides for the calendar year:

Charleston and North Charleston combined is 41/16.4 (~250,000 population). That's more than Virginia Beach and Norfolk, which have a combined population of ~698,000 and murder stats of 39/5.59. Almost three times worse!

The APD website usually posts bulletins up pretty quick on the latest homicides and keeps count on the title. Last night was the 28th, although it hasn't been announced.
Norfolk had #29 over the weekend with a murder in Huntersville, to go to 29/11.84 for the year. Norfolk is on pace to finish the year with ~33-34 murders, which would be slightly above it's decade-to-date average of 33, but well short of last year's 46 murders...
A murder in East Charlotte Sunday marked the 78th murder of the year. Charlotte now stands at 78/9.26 for the year, which is 20 above it's decade average of 58, and eleven over last year's 67...
Chicago is at 578 despite high numbers again this year homicides in Chicago this year and shootings is still lower than last year but still high city is on pace for 697 homicides lower than 791 last year. Majority of homicides is on South and West Side of city but Chicago has to lower it murder rate by 50-70%. There been 10 deadly police shootings result in deaths. October saw slowdown in shootings and murders by 37%.

295 is kinda bad for Philly;
Compton hasn't been deadly in a while but it still has a bad reputation "
I believe Baltimore and St Louis have the highest murder rates in the country.
