U.S. Violent Crimes by State

We got a lot of response regarding crime facts in the U.S. so we decided to continue the series and to add some statistics that looked into each State and compared violent crimes on a per capita basis. This resulted in us coming across the following chart at the U.S. Census Bureau:

Take a look at Washington D.C.  that’s something!  It’s interesting to note where our nation’s capital ranks in the area of violent crime.  Is that odd?  It seems so to us.  In any event, there are quite a few States that are considerably worse off than others in this one aspect (not that there aren’t potential perils anywhere you live).
