    How do you figure? One would think it must be a ratio based on population.

    You're right. I hadn't thought about it in those terms.

    Yep, just a few blocks west of the United Center.

    Hopefully, the Rockets bring some danger of their own to the United Center next week. :grin:

    Yea, it was totally make me feel better about living in El Paso if they took me and killed me in Juarez rather than killing me in El Paso. Sounds like a great place to live!

    100 murders in Houston . . . population in the MILLIONS . . is a problem
    100 Murders in Wisner, La . . population of 1500 . . . is INSANE!!

    That is how those poll usually get skewed to the smaller markets.

    It's 30 miles from downtown Chicago...it's an old industrial town with no industry left...pretty much a south suburb of Chicago now.

    Their claim to fame is being the hometown of Michael Jackson.

    Not a great place. They've had tough economic times for the last 15 or so years.

    Also, the 1996 film Original Gangsters was filmed there.
