Not at all Corpus Christi is significantly lower than that. In fact the only Texas city that averages between 50-60 murders a year is Fort Worth. Austin might be the only one heading in that direction currently but it certainly isn't normal. San Antonio is around twice that. The rest of the state's population is far to low to average in that range, as a typical dangerous Texas city normally falls into the 5-15 per 100,000 range just because most of our cities cover our metro areas pretty extensively.

2010-2018 Corpus Christi averaged- 19.4 murders
2019- Had 33 murders, highest in the city in a long time possibly ever.
2010-2019 average- 20.8 murders

2010-2019
San Antonio- 101.1 murders
Fort Worth- 57.3 murders
Austin- 31.0 murders

Ohio seems to be hit pretty hard. Toledo, Akron, Cincinnati, Columbus, and Cleveland are all either on their way to surpassing record highs, or already have. Dayton reached theirs recently, too. Pretty much every large city in Ohio is suffering, I don't think it's this severe in any other state.

I believe Cincinnati hit #86 over the weekend. They may be one or two higher if I missed something recently.

Their record is 88.

The point still stands because there has been an uptick in the cities, but Cleveland will not set an overall record, which is something like 315 in the early 70s. But it may come close to 200, which probably would be a record as far as rate, though.

I read Akron had two more yesterday, putting it at 48. That probably is pretty close to a record, if not one.

Another Ohio update:

Toledo is at 55 after a bloody weekend. Their record is 60 set in the year 1980 (when the city had 75k-80k more residents).
