25 Most Dangerous Neighborhoods
Your Odds of Being a Victim
Why neighborhoods and not cities? Even the cities with the highest crime rates can have relatively safe neighborhoods, and thus it is less useful to generalize about an entire city. But using exclusive data developed by Dr. Schiller at NeighborhoodScout.com, and based on FBI data from all 17,000 local law enforcement agencies, our gallery counts down the 25 neighborhoods with the highest predicted rates of violent crime in America.'

100% Black, most dangerous city in the U.S. Don't believe me, go there.
I've been in the worst neighborhoods in America, including many of the ones on the list. I didn't think there was a bad neighborhood in Cincinnati, but I'm retired and live in a clean, safe medium-sized town. I like Cincinnati but I travel to Milwaukee (my hometown) for culture, ballgames, etc. and know which neighborhoods to avoid. Miller Park is next to one of the nation's largest Veteran's Centers, is highly policed and safe. Downtown is brightly lit and safe up to a certain hour. Whatever the large city, stay with the crowd, don't get drunk and don't get lost.
