This may be 55 since the police website had the total at 54 as of 10/17, which was probably published before this shooting.

Greensboro now at 60.... Winston-Salem at 41... 3 in the past 5 days.

Do you believe it is better to compare states with cities than neighborhoods with neighborhoods?

Atlanta at 107 as of mid-October. It was at 130 same time last year.

Philly might not even hit 400 murders this year. That’s a MAJOR improvement compared to recent years.

At the current rate, it will likely be around 410, which is still a big improvement. I predict next year the city will finish well under 400 due to a new wave of leadership and another year out from Covid.

If you want to compare states, then NY State had a lower murder rate than SD during the year in question.
