Top Ten Most Dangerous Cities in the U.S.
1. Detroit,MI
2. St. Louis, MO
3. Flint, MI
4. Oakland, CA
5. Camden, NJ
6. Birmingham, AL
7. North Charleston, SC
8. Memphis, TN
9. Richmond, CA
10. Cleveland, OH
As a group we thought that finding the most dangerous cities in the U.S. would be interesting. The list at the top is what we found. As you can see, Detroit is the most dangerous U.S. city. We found statistics on this site. The thing that surprised us the most was that none of New Yorks sections were on the list. We thought that Harlem, New York, the home of Frank Lucas or the "American Gangster" would at least be on the list.

this suprises me because i would have thought chicago, illinios would be one or atlanta, georga or maybe even some were in florida or californa but i guess not
I am surprised at Memphis Tennesse. I would think Youngstown, or Columbus Ohio would be up there Damn Dangerous towns. Zanesville Ohio as well. Sure glad to be back in Georgia, I hated Ohio too much crime.
You are surprised at Memphis?? Have you ever been there? I lived there for a year and a half and it's a really crime ridden city. I'll never recommend that city to anyone. Let's put it this way. Austin Tx and Memphis have the same amount of people at around 700k. Austin had about 3500 violent crimes in 07 while Memphis had over 10,000.
The reason New York cities are not there is because of the flight of a lot of New Yorkers to the South and the beefed up security ESPECIALLY in NYC since 9/11
I left The Bronx in '95 for Atlanta, GA and never looked back. I was born in Harlem and Raised in the Bronx.
When I left New York it was becoming a safer city, but I remember during the 80's I buried A LOT of my friends and I lived in a so called SAFE Neighborhood in the Northeast Bronx.
Most of the kids in New York TRYING to be hard are just frontin' the worst of the worst in New York are Dead, Locked up, retired or just plain moved out and resurfaced in cities like Baltimore, Atlanta, DC, Richmond, Miami, etc..etc..
New York is no longer a dangerous city, but we ALL know that can change in a heartbeat, but I doubt it.
I am actually PROUD to say, that we are no longer a city distinguished by its base, gutter reputation and a city were people WANT TO take their families.
I want to visit Detroit one day before i die, just to see what it's like....and Camden, NJ really surprised me? i spend most of my time in NJ but i've never been to Camden, need to check that out too one day
FOR REAL YALL DONT KNOW ABOUT MEMPHIS TRUST ME IM SUPRISED ITS NOT HIGHER BECASUE THE STUFF THAT GOES ON THERE IS SO RAW AND CRUDE. BUT TRUST ME U DONT WANAN LIVE THERE AND I CAN TELL U BECASUE IMA 13 YEAR OLD BOY THAT IS IS BORN AND RAISED AND STIL THERE LIVING THERE IN NORTH MEMPHIS AND I HATE IT WITH ALL THE CRIME I WANNA MOVE.
I've lived in Bedstuy Brooklyn for 5 years now, and I've been to some sad places, but the most shocking, sad, sorrowful place I've ever been is Camden, NJ. Granted, I've never been down south, but I wish more people could see what it is like there... it's shocking. It needs to change.
anymous reggie
the o is dangerous so is richmond the three cities in front of them are higher because of small population we really the most dangerous city and it was better this year lol niggas in te bay area dont play there was like 10 robberies in a week in a building i lived in san francisco te rest of the country is safe to the o.
camden, nj doesnt suprise me at all, if you have ever been there you would understand. im a white kid on probation who has to go there every 2 weeks to see my P.O., and let me tell you...theres a reason juvenile probation ends at 6:45pm. because walking alone in camden at night is asking to be robbed or shot.
I was born in Puerto rico. and that is much worse than any place in the U.S..BUT THAT IS A DIFFERENT STORY.IMOVED TO NEW JERSEY WHEN I WAS 6.FOR A BETTER OPPORTUNITY.I LIVED IN PATERSON,WHICH WOULD NOT BE THE FIRST CHOICE FOR SOMEONE TO LIVE IN,BUT IVE BEEN TO cAMDEN ,NJ.THAT PLACE IS NO JOKE. I FEEL SORRY FOR THE PEOPLE THERE.I DONT LIVE IN THOSE KINDS OF PLACES ANYMORE AND I THANK GOD FOR THAT.

I know this is old but i saw it in the news and I can't believe it! I live and work in North Charleston, SC its amazing to me that my city would even be on the list!! I am beside myself, I think it could possibly be the influx of yankees in our town -- go home and take your crimes with you!
