No BR/nola

How many of these cities have Uber ?
Posted on 11/11/14 at 4:54 pm to frankthetank
No Scottsdale this year?

I thought BR or Nola could have come in at number 5 at least. I knew Cleveland wasn't great, but didn't think it was worse than those.

St Louis Metro is a lot bigger than Memphis metro. Memphis probably just has more within its defined city limits.

I'd probably be an OT baller if I moved to Detroit

1. List is bullshite, Chicago should be #1. They aren't reporting their crimes to FBI, or lying about them again. People are being murdered in the teens, every weekend in Chicago. They always hid their numbers, and never reported.
2. St>louis County is not included with St.Louis, which is a scam, because every other city on the list has their County included. Also, they add East St.louis, venice, cahokia, etc with St.Louis, and those cities are in Illanoy.
3. St.Louis is behind, because they been looting and protesting. Expect better numbers in 2015. I'd say St.louis was on the DL this season.

Shocked to see Cleveland on the list. I was downtown on a Thursday and saw no one around to get killed.
Because no one is there
