Homicide #40 for Omaha thus far in 2020. This time, a 25 year old woman’s was shot to death in North Omaha last night. This woman’s mother, back in 2007, was murdered in an unsolved double homicide when she was 11 years old.

Sad.

Imagine...

living with the fear that people are on the loose trying to kill you and you family from the age of 11 until you are in fact murdered at 25. Terrifying life.

2020* 339 8.9

* 2020 projection if rate over year continues.

1992 was the highest total murders. 1980 had the highest per-capita rate at 34.2/100K.
Overall highest Murder rates ever for cities over 1+ million is

#1 Philadelphia - 37 per 100k
#2 Los Angeles - 34.2 per 100k
#3 Chicago - 33 per 100k
#4 New York - 27 per 100k

It's Interesting how times have changed but Philly is still slightly the worse.

Dallas and Detroit have the highest ever for cities over 1 million. Detroit was around 56 per 100k in the late 80's and Dallas was at 49 per 100k in 1991 and 45 per 100k in 1990. Houston also was at 44 per 100k in 1979 amd 1981 and in 1991 Houston was at 36 per 100k...

Chicago was 34.1 per 100K in 1992, so essentially the same as 1980 LA. What years were Philly and NYC?

It's crazy to think that Chicago and L.A. traded back and forth with eachother for higher totals throughout the 1980's and 90's when Chicago has the winter months that lowers the violence. Chicago with L.A.'s weather, I couldn't imagine the totals in those peak years.

More like 62-66 per 100k, since by 1987 when the city had 686 murder, the population would have been closer to 1990 census(1.027 million) than what it had in 1980.
