Now we're up to #47. A woman was shot and killed the other day in our Sheraden neighborhood.

Still that's nothing compared to New Orleans of the mid-1990's.

Or DC which had higher rates for the most part of the 90s

The rates are very low compared to the U.S.

I mean yeah, they are low, but like when you compare these to American cities, they’d more fit into the lower end of the spectrum of metro area homicide rates.

You aren’t seeing the rates of where the highest homicide rate in a Canadian city with 100k plus people is often times still 20 times better than the worst American city.

This is for 2019 so it’s a little dated when comparing it to type 2020 crime spike. But there’s plenty of American metros that have rates similar to Canadian cities and the worst metros such as Baltimore are like 3x the rate of Winnipeg, which is Canada’s worst.

Minneapolis went up to 74 last night. Two groups in cars were shooting at each other as they sped around the streets of downtown. One of the cars jumped the curb and ran down an 18 year old woman riding a scooter on the sidewalk on her way home from work. It's been classified as a homicide.

So that's 32 for Boston for the year per Universalhub?

should be 32

I have 34 as one body who was shot in 2013 dies recently, that's a homicide for 2021 technically. https://www.universalhub.com/2021/ma...es-death-ruled

Another elderly man was beaten and pummeled to death on Pompeii Street early this year and Uhub doesn't have it here.

https://www.universalhub.com/2021/se...pompeii-street - Not sure how that's not a homicide




Anyways. One more in Brockton:
