I’m pretty sure Chicago is at the top of the list of gun violence in the US
Overall number of gun murders:
Here is how the nation’s metropolitan areas ranked for gun homicides in 2009-2010:
1. Los Angeles…………………..1,141
2. Chicago…………………………1,139
3. New York………………………..1,101
4. Philadelphia………………………729
5. Houston…………………………….701
6. Detroit……………………………….686
7. Miami…………………………………594
8. Dallas………………………………..469
9. Washington………………………..440
10. San Francisco………………….439
Interesting, I thought NY was a bit lower down on the list but it’s still not bad if you break it down per capita. I’m also Surprised to see Dallas beating Washington.
