Damn my city state is at #4? ?

Yep, if it's a bad statistic then South Carolina is in the to 5.

TEXAS>>>>>>

TEXAS>>>>>>
Houston is as dangerous a city as anywhere I've been, but Texas stays off the list because its so big population wise and the crime rate isn't that high for as many people it has I guess.

Need to do a recount Tennessee not that bad....Memphis is so, so. But it got to be some other states beside Tennessee we don't need that no1 spot

You go to other parts of the state its nothing but woods, oil fields, and farms.
more crime occurs outside cities -

Again didn't make the list because its a big ass state.
Houston did make the top most dangerous city because its a big ass city.
if Houston keeps annexing the towns around it it will pass Chicago in the next couple of decades population wise.
I've been to the Southside of Houston and parts of the North as well (Acres Homes) and its as rough as any inner city areas I've been in and I've been in some supposedly rough places around America. -

well this list counts property and sexual violence as well as violent crime and many of the most dangerous municipalities are small suburbs of larger cities (East St. Louis, Camden, etc). the fact that there are more people living in "suburban" areas means there will be more crime (for the most part). the reason you don't see states like Illinois, Michigan, NJ, is outside the cities are nice as ? -

Sad but true. I already knew my home state was the most racist historically and among the most poorly educated. Now it's turning into a violent ? hole. It's the ? trying to ignite all the gang ? . You got fools in Columbia killing random people as gang initiations. There has got to be a limit to just how stupid you're going to be.

Can't forget about Lake Charles and Alexandria but I willing to bet Monroe had its hand helping to that #7 ranking and its way smaller than Shreveport and Lafayette.
Yeah outside our few "major" cities its hella country. Nothing but sweet potato fields round my way, hell we just got a Mickey D's not even a year ago.
