The whole report is silly. I checked out major Texas cities and found city-wide they are more dangerous those in the article. If these are the numbers for the city as a whole, imagine what the numbers are for the bad parts of town.

Rio Bravo (because Nuevo Laredo wouldn’t work) - Chance of being a victim in this city: 1 in 7
McAllen - 1 in 9
San Antonio - 1 in 9
Austin - 1 in 11
Brownsville - 1 in 11
Dallas - 1 in 11
Corpus Christi - 1 in 12
Ft. Worth - 1 in 12
Harlingen - 1 in 12
Lubbock - 1 in 13
Houston - 1 in 15
El Paso - 1 in 24

Anyone believing the numbers for El Paso? I’m not.
