NO is on pace for a rate in the 70s well above StL and Baltimore.
I was going say, 86 in April for New Orleans is incredibly bad. The rate projection per 100k is going to be astronomical and most likely place it in the top 15 in the WORLD (though I find some foreign country data reporting to be highly suspect)

St. Louis & Baltimore have pretty much peaked out in homicide rate. There only going to go down from here as their demographics flips and they continue to gentrify in their cores.
The element just isn't there not saying its without incidents but very laid back
This.... it's a combination of it being exceptionally affluent and where it's not, you have a huge foreign born population whose are focused on working and staying out of trouble. Couple that with "chill" culture and there's really no drivers for it.

I don't disagree, but I do think it should be pointed out that San Diego is also adjacent to Tijuana which has a higher murder rate than any US city. You can't help but feel a bit of the drug trade violence that gets played out in most US cities happens a bit over the border. But none the less, SD is a very safe city by US standards.
