#4 Saw an article yesterday (sorry,link has gone down the memory hole - mine, not the internet's) that listed the most dangerous cities based on likelihood of being a victim of crime. Chicago was #57 with a 91/100000 chance.. and beautiful downtown Minneapolis was #56 with the same score. I'm guessing the severity/fatality of victimhood was not a factor in the rating.
