In terms of murder rate in 2020, according to Statista,


St. Louis wins the prize in the USA. Several others, including Baltimore, New Orleans, and Detroit make this worldwide list. Chicago did not.

Here’s another Statista link - the highest % increases in murder rates in US cities in 2020, which saw a sharp spike in homicides.

Seattle, New Orleans, and Atlanta all exceeded Chicago.

Chicago is a Trumpistaneze symbol, used to push mythology about imagined lawlessness.
