If they used a gun, then technically it still could be considered social distancing( 6ft minimum).

LA is at 60 as of 3/28, which is about 5% more than last year. No officer involved shootings this year. We were running quite a bit above last year in Jan and Feb (20-35% above 2019), but maybe social distancing has slowed things down in March, with only 12 homicides for the month.

Chicago murder rate is around 17 per 100k

Chicago is the worse big city in America based on total homicides,but the murder rate in Baltimore and St Louis blows Chicago out the water.

Show me 3 square miles in Baltimore or St. Louis with 60 homicides and 400 shootings. This discussion has been had multiple times.

No problem. The following census tracts in Baltimore form a continuous geographic area starting just north/northwest of downtown and extending west and north.

The homicide numbers are for 2019 .
Sources
Data: https://data.baltimorecity.gov/Publi...wsfq-mvij/data
Lat/Long to Census Tract Geocoder: https://geocoding.geo.census.gov/


Total homicides: 60
Land Area: 2.9 sq mi
Total Population (2018): 37,651
Per 100K Rate: 159.36 per 100K

* Census Tract 1604 (Baltimore): 10 homicides | 0.15 sq mi
* Census Tract 1607 (Baltimore): 7 homicides | 0.37 sq mi
* Census Tract 1506 (Baltimore): 7 homicides | 0.37 sq mi
* Census Tract 1501 (Baltimore): 6 homicides | 0.14 sq mi
* Census Tract 1801 (Baltimore): 5 homicides | 0.13 sq mi
* Census Tract 1504 (Baltimore): 5 homicides | 0.31 sq mi
* Census Tract 1605 (Baltimore): 4 homicides | 0.4 sq mi
* Census Tract 1502 (Baltimore): 4 homicides | 0.16 sq mi
* Census Tract 1601 (Baltimore): 3 homicides | 0.15 sq mi
* Census Tract 1606 (Baltimore): 3 homicides | 0.22 sq mi
* Census Tract 1602 (Baltimore): 2 homicides | 0.14 sq mi
* Census Tract 1503 (Baltimore): 2 homicides | 0.15 sq mi
* Census Tract 1803 (Baltimore): 2 homicides | 0.11 sq mi
* Census Tract 1603 (Baltimore): 1 homicides | 0.10 sq mi

For the record, the top census tract for homicide in 2019 in Chicago (Census Tract 231500 in Cook County, Illinois) had 9 homicides. Baltimore has a tract with 10 and 1 with 9. The tract in Chicago with the most homicides is 0.39 sq mi. The one with the most homicides in Baltimore, which had 1 more than the Chicago one, is in 0.15 sq mi.

Baltimore had around 350 homicides in 2019 in a city with a land area of about 81 sq mi. Do we really think that there could possibly be no areas of 3 sq mi with 60 homicides?
