In Table 9.3 we can see that the murder rate for New York City was 6 per 100,000
people in 2007, which is quite low for most cities. The rate for Los Angeles was 10.2;
Chicago, 15.7; Dallas, 16.1; and the two murder capitals of the United States in 2007
were Washington, D.C., with 30.8 and Detroit with 45.5. Rape for metro areas ranged
from a low of 9.8 for New York to a high of 36.8 for Seattle, which has significantly
lower rates for other violent crimes compared to metro areas nationwide. The most violent
cities for assault with a gun in 2007 were Detroit at 486.5 per 100,000 people,
Dallas at 208.9, Philadelphia at 200.8, Atlanta at 276.7, and Minneapolis at 138.7.
To understand the nature of urban crime, it is necessary to view it as a spatial as well
as a social phenomenon. The incidence of crimes varies within any given city by neighborhood.
Thus, while all cities have become more dangerous since World War II, there
are still places that are as safe as any other place in the country. Conversely, certain
neighborhoods are scenes of unremitting terror. Typically, criminal incidents follow the
lines of class and racial segregation: The most dangerous places are also the places where
the poorest urban residents live. For example, “The typical New York City murder victim
is a black man in his late teens or twenties, killed by an acquaintance of the same
race with a hand gun during a dispute—most likely over drug-dealing” (Greenberg,
1990:26). In all cities, racially segregated ghettos are the places where violent crimes are
committed the most. Furthermore, the majority of incarcerated felons are either black
or Hispanic, and virtually all are poor. They come from the ghetto areas of the city, and
their crimes usually were committed in those areas. And as the urban environment is
partitioned into areas of relative safety and terror, several extreme examples of violent
crimes, such as shootings in public schools, indicate that the islands of safety are shrinking
in size and availability.
