    Top 10, as of 2012...http://www.policymic.com/articles/22686/america-s-10-deadliest-cities-2012

    Detroit used to have the dubious distiction of having the highest murder rate, but i think it's now been surpassed by  Chicago or Los Angeles, or even St. Louis.

    Stats for 2011: http://money.cnn.com/gallery/real_estate/2013/01/23/dangerous-cities/

    I had a friend from Oakland, Ca.  His line was, "Oakland's a good place to be from, if you're a bullet."
