The majority of murders in the U.S. occur in only a small percentage of counties across the country.
The Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) said in a new report that there is a “geographical concentration” of murders, with 68 percent of killings occurring in just 5 percent of the nation’s counties. The homicides also tend to be concentrated to relatively small pockets of those counties, the report said.

Southern Arizona....illegal border crossings....liberals....what could go wrong?
Heavily Democratic precincts.
Next time a democrat calls Trump voters hicks. You can call them murders. We have the guns. We don’t have the police. But we are still civilized enough to not shoot each other. Democrats are just not civilized.
And by the way economics has nothing to do with this. While the high murder rate neighborhoods tend to be lower income. All low income counties don’t have high murder rates. Just the ones with the gangs and the drugs.
now to extrapolate where most of EBT users reside...
This is meaningless. There are 3007 counties in the US, 5% of that is about 150. Half the US population lives in only 146 counties, so if “most” (i.e., more than half) murders take place in only 5% of counties, they take place where half the population lives. In other words, more than half the murders take place where more than half the people live. Duh.
It also should be pointed out that counties with the highest population densities are controlled by Democrats.
I would love to see the murder percentage for political party/ I bet that democrats are more likely to murder then republicans.
Study it a little and you will find it is primarily full of dimorats and hispanics, mostly mexicans.
Building the wall is immoral but mexicans killing themselves and Americans isn't????
I’m curious how many of them are blue counties, and how many of them are red counties. I’ll bet more of them are blue!
Yutes no doubt.
Does that map show just murder rates or crime in general?
Now superimpose that on the 2016 electoral map.
I find it interesting that the writers elected to post a map that does not provide the names of cities located at the center of the distinctly red areas. If someone would do that, it would immediately reveal the obvious: murders are concentrated in urban areas with a very particular demographic profile.
FACT....now keep it to yourself
It's Democrat...
Democrat strongholds.
I think the proper test would be “these counties only have X% of of the US population, but have (X+N)% of the murders committed within the US.”
If the percentage of the murders is higher than the the percentage of the population, then they are on to something.
For chi-raq, obozo’s turf, try this site:
Despite the name, it has all the crime stats and areas, including if anyone got shot in the butt!
Here in Jacksonville, Florida almost all the homicides are in a single zip code, a triangle-shaped wedge of Duval County that police have termed the "cease fire zone." If you are white and aren't looking to buy drugs, you can go your entire life without ever setting foot there.
Outside this zone, Jacksonville is pretty safe but the mayhem that takes place in this single zip code skews the whole county.
