Good boy, zero for conduct...
The nation has a new murder capital contender as Baltimore shockingly surpasses New York City- an alarming feat as it is much much smaller and less densely populated.
As of Wednesday, there have been 208 known homicides within NYC limits, but Baltimore logged its 213th that same evening.
Perhaps the most unnerving aspect of this is the fact that NYC is populated by a massive 8.4 million people, while Baltimore is the home to a mere 620,000. This means that the murder rate for NYC is at 2.5 per 100,000 while Baltimore has hit 34 per 100,000 people.
Chicago is still the deadliest city by the numbers, with 284 logged homicides since the first of the year. However, the city is home to approximately 2.7 million people, which means the murder rate is about 10.4 per 100,000 people- less than a third of rate we are seeing in Baltimore.
