Local leaders habitually downplay the horrific violence plaguing Kansas City early in the year when the numbers numbers won't scare locals, this is part of our cowtown tradition of violence.
Thankfully, TKC readers are far more conscientious.
To wit . . .
TWO METRO KANSAS CITY NEIGHBORHOODS RANK AMONG THE UNSAFEST IN THE NATION!!!
Here's the info sent by a KICK-ASS TKC READER with a worthwhile breakdown . . .
Crime In America: Study Reveals The 10 Most Unsafe Neighborhoods
The local connection . . .
5. Kansas City, Missouri: Block group delimited by E. 8th St., Prospect Ave., E. 12th St., and Cleveland Ave.
Predicted violent crimes per year: 182
Predicted violent crime rate: 304 crimes per 1,000 residents
The details: “31% of the households surveyed in this block group in Kansas City lived with less than $10,000 a year, a proportion higher than 98% of U.S. block groups,” says de Bonviller. “With a $20,391 median household income, residents tend to earn less than 97% of the block groups nationally. Finally, a high proportion (about 56%) of the surveyed residents were not in the labor force (top 7% nationally). Note that this block group includes a stadium and a park. In such places which tend to attract many visitors while hosting only a few residents, using the crime rate as an indicator (calculated based on the population residing in a block group) can lead to crime overestimation. This is one of the reasons why our ranking was made using two indicators: the crime rate, and the absolute number of crimes expected.”
Across the State Line in The Dotte, the crisis only slightly better . . .
10. Kansas City, Kansas: Block group delimited by Ann Ave, N. 10th St., Washington Blvd., N. 3rd St. / Minnesota Ave. / N. 4th St.
Predicted violent crimes per year: 187
Predicted violent crime rate: 204 crimes per 1,000 residents
The details: “48% of households in this block group in Kansas City, Kansas lived with less than $10,000 a year during the American Community Survey 2014-2018, which is more than 99.7% of block groups nationally,” . . .

ReplyDeleteDon't forget all of the Hyde Park area."Central, North, South, and Old." South KC, Ruskin, and they have even taken down Martin City, all of midtown, the Ward Parkway corridor, crossroads, Longfellow, Waldo, and they are working their way into OP, PV and Mission Hills. I even saw them walking down Stateline In Mission Hills ranting and acting well....non human. Oh you know who they are, don't you?

DeleteYour big fat mama? Keep the dirty woman indoors. At least put her on a leash outside the trailer. It's nice outside.
If only we could relocate all of those poor Black people to a nicer place, they wouldn't be murdering each other so much ! BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !
ReplyDelete^^No applesauce for you geezer.
ReplyDelete^^^ Shut up cry bully
ReplyDelete^^Huh? What's a cry bully you dementia-addled fucktard? Get help.
ReplyDeleteIf they paint a few more BLM murals in those areas everything will be better.
ReplyDeleteTwo in the top ten, baby! We are slacking. Los Angeles and San Francisco are still more dangerous. Work harder for next time, guys! Maybe KC can sweep the rankings.
ReplyDelete^^Yes! and with any luck several hundred geezers will get killed! Yay!
ReplyDeleteIt should be all of Kansas City south of the river.

ReplyDeleteThe only news here is all the neighborhoods they left off!!
2:30 short for cry baby bully fucktard! You’re nothing more than sad pathetic bitter little person. Hahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteGates bbq and murder, apparently it’s a lethal combination.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry my offspring posts so much stupidity on you folks. He fell on his head from the tree when born, and has never gotten over the fact he's a retard chimp even the others at the zoo refuse to play with. This is all he knows how to do.
ReplyDeleteDon’t care
ReplyDeleteWasn't one of Quinton Lucas' sisters killed by a shotgun blast in KCKS back around Halloween 2020?
ReplyDeleteI don't think local media reported it.
The area highlighted on the map does not match the boundary description.
ReplyDeletethe KCK boundary description is odd, ann to minnesota streets, that's like a three block strip. minnesota, armstrong, ann, barnett, I think is how they go. yet from 10th to 4th street ... dang that is a long way, so that is like a skinny rectangle that matches no concept of neighborhood boundaries commonly understood
