Lake St is not a neighborhood. It's a street that runs through several neighborhoods. The EL trains runs the majority of the length. Train riders be careful.
I bet the majority of the crime happens downtown @ the Clark or State St stop where everybody transfers (southsiders, northsiders, westsiders, suburbanites). These stats are skewed.
Meh, idk about Marietta st. Well maybe, I went to State and they used to stay robbing a student so maybe. I can see Humphries for sure though. Atlanta aint hittn on shyt though. I'm mooving to Massachusetts. Too many faqs, followers and wannabes. Disgusting! These lames done took over my damn city. A crying shame.
FT. Worth Stand Up!!! LOL I dont see how Lancaster is on da list its nothin but homless people on E. Lancaster really...now BErry or Rosedale OOOOH WEE MAYNE!!! lol
15. Neighborhood: E. Lancaster Ave. in Fort Worth, Texas Predicted annual violent crimes: 284 Violent crime rate (per 1,000): 98.12 My chances of becoming a victim here (in one year): 1 in 10
@bg diva federal in chicago is not too far state street in chicago on what is called the low end. it used to be some really rough projects all up and down state street just rows and rows of nothing but big projects and each building was 18 stories high and a whole block long. federal treet does not run that far south
Neighborhood Scout and 251 are obviously white, which we all know is the devil as Malcolm said. This is so untrue about this neighborhood. This neighborhood is no diffierent from where I used to live which is Bethesda, MD. They had the same crime as 21st but since Bethesda consisted of mostly white devils, neighborhood scout failed to report it. You white racist [EXPLETIVE].
LOOOKKK AT THAT NOOOOO """DETROIT, MI""" THANK GOD MY CITY ISNT UP THERE! HA & YOU PEOPLE PROBABLY THOUGHT THE "D" WOULD BE ON THERE...HA NOW LOOK WHOS UP THERE "YOUR CITY" SMH SHOWS HOW MUCH KNOWLEDGE YOU PEOPLE GOT FOR THINKING THE REST OF THE WORLD WAS SAFE FUKIN FUNNY! ANYWAYS DAMN ATLANTA WTF IS UP WITH YOU PEOPLE YOU GOT SOME ISSUES!!!
THIS LIST IS BS!! NO ONE IS EVEN LIVING ON HALF OF THOSE STREETS IN ATL. THOSE STREETS USE TO BE LOCATED IN THE PROJECTS OF INNER CITY ATL AND SINCE THE PROJECTS HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN VIOLENCE ISN'T AN ISSUE. AND MARIETTA ST??!! FOR REAL??!! THAT'S BIG MONEY LIVING OVER THERE, NOTHING BUT EXPENSIVE EATERIES, BOUTIQUES, AND LOFTS.
Damn D.C. We need to get it together. Being on a list like this not a good look. We are the Nations Capital and when you watch the news you would think we the murder capital. SMH. The government is payin all this money for wars overseas but they can't even stop the violence right under their noses in the nations capital.
Well I know that list ain't accurate, Detroit should of been the top 5, philly top 5, memphis number 2, it should of been other states that hasn't been added to that list. But its a shame for crime to be at a high rate. Shyt going to get worse wen christmas is around the corner wen they kids ain't got shyt under there charlie brown christmas tree...more robberies and home invasion end of 2010 it will double or triple. Sorry for the folks who lives in them cities or states...Smh
I dont usually comment but i grew up N 13th st and still go thru there my daughter goes to school near there and my grandmother still lives there it is not that bad its just these mutha fuckas making these polls is some punk ass naggas because 13th street is cool mind ya bizness and nobody will mess wit you
Well gosh darn I didn't know W. Lake street was a neighborhhod! Lol but nah Ima southsider and I know Lake is downtown but I think it runs thru the westside too so ....lol and 40th and Federal is where the last few projects were. I'm surprised not one Englewood street is on here seeing they were on the news everyday this damn summer ...
STATISTICS DON'T LIE, BLACK PEOPLE ARE RUINING AMERICA

I disagree with this. Our government has more of an impact on our Nation. If our Presidents make bad decisions, this will affect the Nation. If BLK People make bad decisions, this will affect their communities. Whites being affected is a direct result of their government leaders.
Lol @ the comments... I visited Galveston, Tx and it seemed like such a quiet, nice place. Maybe I was just in the good part lol... but seriously every town has that one rough neighborhood or street.. sh*t must be pretty phucking rough in these cities because in mine there are a couple streets you really don't wanna be on lol
I live near lake st by chicago ave n y'all over exaggerating makin dat ish number one why I don't understand making my area look bad...don't degrade the westside when out south they called 911 and told the operater that its hunting season for the cpd n they killin pigs so state everything if your going to state the "facts"
Dont know, but I do know that 100 safest cities list is bullshit #45 New Iberia,La LMAO that is hilarious, the population is only like 30,000 yet on the news somebody always getting robbed, shot, or killed there. Business owners getting shot in the head over the past few months, and its grimy. Honestly I dont think any city in La with more than 25,000 could be on that list. But yeah I know bigger cities with less crime thats not on there like Allen, Tx smh@ bull$hit @ss list..
I'm so sick of MTO lying ass! Always lying on my city! I can tell u that most of the streets thats listed dont even see alot of activity like that. Come on, Humphries St? There's nothing on that street but a church and sitting across from it is an Elementary school! I grow up in that boring ass area. Y'all lie to much!
TO All Those DUMMIES saying "im so glad my city didnt make the list" WAKE UP and stop being so NAIVE!! Crime is EVERYWHERE in America and this USELESS ARTICLE proves absolutely NOTHING!! I live in an affluent suburb in beautiful WAShington state and YUP u guessed it murder and Assaults happen here as well, so don't FOOL yourselves into thinking ur SAFE just because u read some SKEWED STATISTICS, in a MISLEADING ARTICLE....DAMN PEOPLE THINK FOR YOURSELVES!! Wake upp!....SMh
Oh my God! I am so tired of MTO lying on my city! Most of the streets they have listed for Atlanta dont even see activity like that. KingD_atl is speaking the truth- There's nothing on Marietta St. but warehouses and one lonely ass strip club and as far as Humphries St.- I grew up in that boring ass neighborhood. There's a church on that street and across from it is an Elementary school! Please, before you report it Fred- get your damn facts straight!
I have SIMPLE idea for the people of MTO, why not ATTEMPT TO get people to FORMULATE ideas for solutions to these problems and POST THAT!! Instead of HIGHLIGHTING the problems in these predominantly BLK and Latino communities...SEARCh for articles that highlight Positive activities as well in these communities...
@GeorgiaPeachATL- Sorry, I'm gonna have to disagree with you on your comment. You may have been born and raised in Atlanta- the same as I but you really dont know what you're talking about- as far as the crime in those areas-sorry. You may be on to something with the other stuff but aint nobody gon make me move away from my city unless I wanna leave.
Damn... this fits in TOO perfectly to a video I saw this morning, on the "nignorance" some of us indulge in today... Video damn-near made me cry, "THUGGIN IT & LOVIN' IT, PART 1" [link to external website removed]
Here's my reply to the friend that sent it:
"ALLADESE PPL RIGHT THURR-- I can't laugh @ none of this [EXPLETIVE]; kinda glad I saw this... When I see [EXPLETIVE] like this, I theorize that negroes today may be AS BAD OFF as goddamn slavery days, only now, we've enslaved ourselves and the "Plan" for us has worked like a charm, cuz it's automated. We no longer need the "White Man" and the "Man" to blame anymore-- we just self-destruct.
All these non-productive, grown-assed men & fathers playing w/monopoly $$ and fighting over dumb [EXPLETIVE]; meanwhile the "enemy" (white & new immigrants) are becoming NOT hood entrepreneurs, getting jobs & careers, lapping us as a pple and seeing the REAL money these negroes thirst for. Nobody wants to see that the prison system is the new slave labor & cheap Iabor; why wld u wanna position yrself to be in that system like a revolving door?
I blame racism, class-ism, the education system, and moreover, themselves. Ppl tend to do the best they can with what they have. I don't approve, but I understand..."
:(
i LIVE IN N. CHAS SC AND I DONT THINK THT THIS [EXPLETIVE] IS WRONG I BELEIVE THTS A AREA CALEED THE MACON I WAS OVER THERE CHILLIN WIT MY HOMEGIRL AND GOT INTO A FIGHT WIT A DUDE AND THE BITCH SHOT ME IN MY DAMN LEG AND IN MY THIGH AT THT. MIND U I AM A FEMALE. SO #13 ABOUT N. CHAS I BELEIVE THAT [EXPLETIVE] TO THE FULLEST
