[quote=Anonymous]More context. Chicago has 166 murders so far this year and 2.7 million people. If Chicago had DC’s population they’d have 240+ murders. Las Vegas has 38 murders in 2025 and 660,000 people. Philadelphia has 101 murders in 2025 and 1.5 million people. For people saying DC is safe; safe compared to where? Compared to St Louis, sure, but we should be aiming higher. The nation’s capital shouldn’t be dramatically more unsafe than Chicago and Philadelphia. When we start comparing DC’s murder rate to Western capitals it’s equally bleak. London has 24 murders this year and 8 million people. [/quote]
