We know that everywhere you go cops have a tough duty...but what city do you think cops stay alerted and busy 24/7. Even dangerous for themselves to patrol. Depending on where you live and where you hang you should know. But here is my top-5 list:

1.riviera beach
2.boynton beach
3.belle glade
4.west palm beach
5.lake worth

what do you think? But i promise that boynton & riviera remain in the top-2...ask any pbc cop...

And what cities is ok for cops to patrol? (not cities like jupitor or palm springs, at least some with crime or ghettos).
Here is my top-5:
1.south bay
2.pahokee
3.greenacres/lantana
4.boca raton
5.delray beach

All cities have crime, and even cities like Boca have ghettos, Jupiter also has a small poor area with mostly illegal immigrants not quite a "ghetto" but more a "barrio" although there is also an area called Limestone Creek that could be considered a "ghetto". But I have to say your list is good.

I love the language that's being used Barrio's Ghetto's which actually means to many Hispanics and African Americans. Poverty does not have a color I'm sure if some of those people could remove them selves from those areas they would.

Manny's list is on point. Check out the Post's crime blotter. Although it is limited on what is shows, it still gives some insight.

Actually, West Palm Beach's "barrio" section isn't too bad crime wise. It's just ugly and too many people share homes meant for a single family. There are a couple of mishaps, however, because illegal immigrants are targeted for robbery due to the fact that they carry cash and don't run to the police.
