Detroit, it's Detroit. It's always Detroit. Detroit's violent crime rate is 2,137 per 100,000 people. What does this mean exactly? For every hundred thousand people you can see right now, 2,137 of them are being crimed on. And according to Forbes, Detroit's violent crime rate is down 10 percent from 2011, but that's still five times the national average. It's so bad, in fact, that in 2010, Detroit bested Karachi, Pakistan and Ciudad Juárez, Mexico as the second most dangerous city in the world.
