Which exempting Baltimore are in quite red states with lax gun laws.

According to USA Today, among the 50 largest cities, the 5 highest homicide rates in 2017 were in:

Baltimore (55.8 per 100,000)
New Orleans (40.4)
Detroit (39.7)
Memphis (30.6)
Chicago (24.0)

St. Louis isn’t in the top 50 anymore in population, but its homicide rate would have been first (205 homicides with a population of 308,626, or 66 per 100,000).
