Louisville has both a higher violent crime rate and higher murder rate than

1. New York City, home city of the Italian Mafia and 150 gangs

2. Los Angeles, home city of the Mexican Mafia in the US, Crips, Bloods and 1350 gangs having 120,000 members

3. San Antonio

4. San Diego

5. San Jose

6. Austin

7. Jacksonville

8. Columbus

9. Dallas and Fort Worth

10. Seattle

11. Denver

These numbers indicate the crime problem is bigger than just a few kid gangs and disorganized criminals. Hall and Oates provide additional details on the anti-crime strategy here.
