Good to see my neighbor is #1 for something.

I do think they are very misleading with their numbers. I believe they are including East St. Louis, Illinois with Missouri.

All the criminals there went to DC... Ha, no doubt.
 
New York City is not on there. Neither is Washington DC, or LA.

I wonder which cities have the most white collar crime? Im guessing New York City.

I wonder which cities have the most white collar crime? Im guessing New York City. D.C. without a doubt. Just look at whos in the White House.
 
Actually the 11 most dangerous, evaluated by violent crime rate instead of the more general "crime risk" (which includes a majority of non violent crime) is below (FBI uniform crime report for 2008). The commonality between them is that all 10 of the most dangerous cities were among those identified by the Department of Justice as transit points for Mexican drug cartels.
