Even the most dangerous cities in America can have relatively safe neighborhoods, as there is more variation in crime within most cities than between cities. But using exclusive data developed by NeighborhoodScout, and based on FBI data from all 17,000 local law enforcement agencies in America, we here report those specific neighborhoods in America that have the highest predicted rates of violent crime per 1,000 neighborhood residents of all. Violent crimes include murder, forcible rape, armed robbery, and aggravated assault. These neighborhoods are the epicenters of violence in America, where social issues are likely to ignite into violence and spread. See our FAQ on how we rank the most dangerous neighborhoods

Each year, roughly 7,000 blacks are murdered. Ninety-four percent of the time, the murderer is another black person. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, between 1976 and 2011, there were 279,384 black murder victims. Using the 94 percent figure means that 262,621 were murdered by other blacks. Though blacks are 13 percent of the nation's population, they account for more than 50 percent of homicide victims. Nationally, the black homicide victimization rate is six times that of whites, and in some cities, it's 22 times that of whites. I'd like for the president, the civil rights establishment, white liberals and the news media, who spent massive resources protesting the George Zimmerman trial's verdict, to tell the nation whether they believe that the major murder problem blacks face is murder by whites. There are no such protests against the thousands of black murders.
There's an organization called NeighborhoodScout. Using 2011 population data from the U.S. Census Bureau, 2011 crime statistics from the FBI and information from 17,000 local law enforcement agencies in the country, it came up with a report titled "Top 25 Most Dangerous Neighborhoods in America." (http://tinyurl.com/cdqrev4) They include neighborhoods in Detroit, Chicago, Houston, St. Louis and other major cities. What's common to all 25 neighborhoods is that their makeup is described as "Black" or "Mostly Black." The high crime rates have several outcomes that are not in the best interests of the overwhelmingly law-abiding people in these neighborhoods. There can't be much economic development. Property has a lower value, but worst of all, people can't live with the kind of personal security that most Americans enjoy.
Disgustingly, black politicians, civil rights leaders, liberals and the president are talking nonsense about "having a conversation about race." That's beyond useless. Tell me how a conversation with white people is going to stop black predators from preying on blacks. How is such a conversation going to eliminate the 75 percent illegitimacy rate? What will such a conversation do about the breakdown of the black family (though "breakdown" is not the correct word, as the family doesn't form in the first place)? Only black people can solve our problems.
totally NOT shocking
Dear Gawd,
West and North Philly don’t even make the list.
Those top 25 places must be REALLY bad...
Kind of surprised about both Greenville and Spartanburg being where they are.
A bit odd there’s not one in the northeast.
but no Ny?..no NY state cities...outstanding...
and no west coast areas either....also good...
This is a planned result. I have no idea why the elite and government want to keep an entire race of people down and enslaved, but they do. There is a class of whites who should be part of this conversation - those who created this system, testifying as they appear in court on charges of corruption and crimes against humanity. They flat out f’d up our cities.
rename Detroit as...
TRAYVONIA, Michigan!!
Go ahead and walk through one of those neighborhoods and see if you get profiled and then attacked for being white and in the wrong neighborhood.
White Center area in Seattle.
“...Quit ur bellyachin, you weird azz craka and hand over your MF’en money!!!!....”
Must be those strange Amish folks again. Holder’s people would never do that.
6 Houston, TX (Scott St / Wilmington St) 91.27 1 in 11
Both represented by Sheila Jackson Lee. No wonder she wants to be head of Homeland Security.
I can see Detroit residences.
We’re number 1.
We’re number 1.
We’re number 1.
Yeah!
Wait, we’re number 1 in what now?
MLK Blvd. in Houston did not make the list? Something is wrong with that survey.
WTH? I was hoping my city of birth would make it. (Philly)
MLK Blvd is a place to avoid everywhere says Chris Rock.
A lot of poor people left and moved to cities inland.
What is with Tennessee?
I'm shocked!!
