I question the accuracy of that FBI map only because it shows two counties in California along the Nevada border as having “gun violence.” Those two counties are Mono and Alpine. Both are very rural, Alpine County has something less than 300 people living there. I recall that an outsider driving through there a few years ago commited a crime at the only business establishment in the county, otherwise there is no “gun violence” there.
Mono County is rural and Conservative, ranchers, hunters, outdoorsmen, etc., except for the Mammoth Lakes Ski Resort which has attracted a lot of weathly Liberals (whose votes turned the county blue like Aspen, CO), and illegal aliens to work as cooks and busboys. The illegals and the drug dealing ski bums are the only ones committing crimes there, but not with guns.
I am running a few searches later today to locate the original source.
As far as individual discrepancies, I don't doubt that could be some errors.
