St.Louis is always on the list, because they only include St.louis city. And also include 3 shite holes in Illanoy in with their numbers.

St.Louis County is not included, which it should be, as almost all of those cities on the list include their county. Adding St.Louis County knocks St.Louis to 18? or even in the 20's.

You won't find me defend North St.Louis, but the city gets an unfair shake with no stlco, and those shite holes from illanoy being included.

Why you keep saying this? Looks to me like they are going by the city limits only.

Especially considering Chicago won't even give their numbers or lie.

They never reported, which kept them off the list, then Quin took the cash, reported and Chicago was #1 or #2 last year. Now suddenly Chicago is even more violent and they dont make the list????

If you report your crime numbers to FBI, feds throw you a nice treasure chest of gold. Feds also do it for Cities that have more DWI checks.

like pittsburgh, they include Allegheny county in their numbers. other cities the same.

Many cities have several counties in them. Where as St.Louis, they only include the city and will not include St.Louis County.

they do not include st.louis county, as part of metro, but include 3 ish cities in Illinois that aren't even part of the same state???

This list that was posted gives stats only for city limits, not counties, for all of the cities. There might be other lists out there that rank according to metropolitan areas, but this one does not do that.

And St. Louis County is included in metropolitan St. Louis (but again, the list that the OP posted goes strictly by city stats).

Chicago city limits has MANY,MANY,MANY counties in it. Huge counties. And to be fair, St.Louis County, St.Charles County, and Jefferson County should all be included with St.louis crime. And it would fall to 20+.

And like i said, St.Louis gets stuck with Eastl, venice, etc. And those cities aren't even in the same state. Numbers are flawed.

Nola must not report their numbers to fbi for the federal cash.

Chicago never did, but did for a year or so and shot to top, must of stopped.

What part of the city of St. Louis is in Illinois? Because the OP is based only on the city of St. Louis

Do you understand the difference between a city and a metropolitan area?

The OP list is CITY LIMITS ONLY. Chicago METRO has many many many counties, so does St. Louis METRO (or Pittsburgh since you brought that one up too). Metro areas usually are lots of counties, and can even span different states. Cities are within counties/parishes; although there are some city structures that operate differently, such as New York City which includes several boroughs. But now I'm just confusing you again.

It's amazing how many of y'all are absolutely fricking clueless about Atlanta. The downtown area around the GA Dome (I'm assuming the only place 90% of you who have been here have ever visited) is awful. No way around it. It sucks.

The rest of Atlanta is seeing an incredible revitalization with a shite ton of young professionals and families moving back into the area. "Atlanta" as a whole is a great area and is DAMN sure safer than New Orleans. LOL at the 'where is Atlanta herp derp' jokes.

Also I'm on phone so won't respond for a while. Inb4umad
