Total murders - not per capita


https://www.google.com/amp/s/chicag...s-2020-skyrocket-crime-violence-cpd-homicidesAs of Dec. 31, the city recorded 774 murders in 2020, an increase of more than 50% from the 506 murders in 2019, according to a database maintained by the Chicago Sun-Times.
Not defending Chicago, but these numbers are based on a metropolitan statistical index. “Chicagoland” is quote populous. Around 9.4 million people. The rate was 9.9 for 100,000 in ‘18.
I stayed in Chicago metropolis for a bit. It wouldn’t surprise me a bit if a good number of homicides occurred in Cook Co. Thats not a place to be in some parts for sure.
