According to Morgan Quitno Publishing, Cleveland, Ohio is the 12th most dangerous city in America, out of 369 cities with a population of 75,000 or more. The often mentioned city of Washington, DC actually comes in 13th on the list.
The listing comes, apparently, from 2004 FBI records based on six general categories of crimes: “murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary and motor vehicle theft.”
