Yeah there's an abnormally high amount of murders, but those generally don't target random civilians. Some of those websites are using data from 2017 as well which is why those lists you posted are inconsistent. The person I replied to also said "crime," not "violent crime," which are different statistics.

I just pulled a bunch of studies but the fact is how they measure crime has as much to do with it, and that was my point. If you don’t view Baltimore as a violent city, you will be the next victim.

Of course it's a violent city, just like any other city on Earth.

Those aren't studies, those are lists on business websites.
