Guess who takes the top honors? Hint: We have the best hockey team and by far the worst football team.

So they have West Palm, Orlando, and Miami in their top 15.... Jacksonville is more dangerous than all of them....

video on the crime in Jacksonville

"Jacksonville, Florida, has been the Sunshine State's murder capital for the last nine years. According to the FBI's newly released Violent Crime Report, Jacksonville recorded a 22% increase in violent crimes last year- more than any other Southern city. Why is Jacksonville, not Miami or Tampa, Florida's murder capital? What historic and socioeconomic factors are contributing to the city's current crisis? How will Duval County – The 904 – (for the city's 904 area code) successfully address the murder epidemic that is threatening the very future of the city?"

Just drive around and get lost. It's pretty unnerving but it's the neighborhoods outside the city that really creep me out.

Yeah NYC has made a lot of changes thru the 90s. It has been a pretty safe place for a long time.

I lol'd. Better than the 90's, yes, but crime is still very rampant... Maybe, I am bias, due to the fact that i have had three "Gangster" related incidents...

Yeah, I am too much of a safety nut. Saint Paul is my limit. Though there have been a lot of brutal murders there in the past few years

Out of curiosity is McDonalds the worst of all fast food chains? I know I don't really care since I'm not a big fast food eater but I wish we could see what would happen to the guy if he went to Burger King or Wendy's.

I was expecting Philidelphia to be in the top 5, not 15th. Interesting. Also thought D.C would be up there too.
