According to Yahoo News St, Louis Missouri is the United States most dangerous city! St Louis had 2,071.1 crimes per 100,000 people and the nations other cities averages 429.4 so there is a big gapping difference in the crime! This is why St Louis topped the charts. St Louis averages 4.5 murders per day! All of these number are high they mayor said we as a city our not proud of this. The police chief said that these are ridiculous numbers. St Louis is the most investigated city in the U.S.
Is this a surprise? Not to me if you been to St Louis this would be no surprise to you! There are parts of St Louis that you don’t go if you are white and if you don’t know anyone or don’t have any business down there. I am from St Louis and I will tell you straight up there are parts that I won’t even go in!
Why are these numbers so high? A lot of this has to do with poverty, low income and the economy. This will most likely never change St Louis was always like this even when the city was majority white! This really makes us all from St Louis look bad and lowers the tourist rate people are afraid to come to St Louis because of this!
I still love St Louis that will never change but the worse are economy gets the more the murder rate and crime rates will rise. I wish that all of this would go really low but it just wouldn’t be St Louis without all of the crimes that we are known for would we?
Wow, that is ridiculous. I didn't know that St. Louis had so many murders. I guess I never really payed that much attention to that kind of thing.
ReplyDeleteI knew St. Louis had one of the highest crime rates, it has been like that forever. I agree with you it's never going to change, and especially now the way the economy is going. I love St. Louis but it's one city I would not want to get lost in.
