Yes , when my friend died in Colorado and the coroner took his body away at midnight, the neighbors were stealing every thing outside, not chained up. I was too scared to go out to confront them.
Was this in Denver or in the country wow that's really low life see what happens when California's move to your state see that s*** But now hell is coming their way
As to why the rural crime is down in Alabama, last week in a small town out side of Gadsden, a guy pulled a gun in a convenience store to rob it, and all 5 people in it shot him.
Back in the 1990s one year in Bridgeport Connecticut 6 would be robbers were shot during different hold ups. Not a single clerk was prosecuted and it had zero impact on crime. It is nearly impossible to make a definitive connection one way or another between gun control and crime rates.
I owned a house in San Jose CA back in the 90s, with a fenced in backyard. Burglars scaled the fence several times at night, only to be met by my two very unfriendly Jack Russell terriers. A few neighbors initially complained about my dogs barking but soon changed their tune once they began experiencing fewer burglar attempts also.
I've lived in Colorado since 88, I've watched this state fall apart bit by bit. It used to be clean, quiet, and inexpensive. Now it's dirty, crowded, and way, way overpriced.
@drivingwithricks my son moved there in 98. It was good back then. I went out every year until last year. No desire to go back. I feel sorry for natives like you that have seen your beautiful state destroyed. Good luck.
As I suspected, it's not states with high crime. It's cities with high crime. I lived in NV for a few years in a small town. A lot of people in the area never locked their cars or houses crime was so low. Probably had something to do with all the guns everyone carried.
I live in FL and everyone has guns, but still locks their doors with all the crime. Of course cities will have more crime. Higher population density will mean more crime.
But Reno crime made its own cops show. My friends gasped w/ “You watch that!” I looked em up & down as I’d seen th players do standup bits. here we are today ppl love Wendy McClendon Covey and Thomas Lennon
I live in Utah, and I've been to Vegas a lot. Walking down the Strip, you kind of feel like you should have your wallet in your front pocket, but unless something really weird is going down, pretty much everyone else is just keeping to themselves and contemplating where they're going to lose their money next.
Wow, I'm slipping. I only guessed five correctly. I also thought Louisiana would have been number one not only in stats, but public opinion. Nice work, Briggs.
I'm 25 mi outside Tucson. Just in the 3 blocks around me fentanyl has killed 3 people in the last few years. That poison is all over desert Arizona, I'm afraid.
Another great list, Mr. Briggs. Sorry to hear about The Last Frontier State. I love Alaska. I won't hesitate to visit up there again. Don't even let it scare you from visiting. Some of the best wildlife and scenery in North America.
17:27, Population density doesn’t mean more crimes. I live in Singapore, we have the world’s 2nd highest population density and yet our crime rate is 0.1 per 100k. Hence it’s not about the population density, it’s about the people.
@@dongkwon1242Oh yeah Southeast Asia is no joke about that although Thailand is the wild West literally you would get weed, laid and a firearm carry license.
Crime is rooted in poverty and greed amongst the rich. It’s the ratio between those who have and those who have not. When you have nothing especially no food, you will resort to theft. We are going to see a lot more crime in the immediate future especially due to political unrest and the economy. We haven’t seen the end of inflation concerning food prices. The food barons have the ultimate monopoly, then the housing barons.
Chicago as a whole isn't even in the top 25 worse crime rates, but where you are in Chicago matters a great deal. Most of Chicago isn't dangerous when you have situational awareness. The reality is Chicago city and Cook County debt is so great that the city can't afford to flood high risk areas with police that are greatly needed. With proper policing the violent crime rate might drop in half and some bad guys might go elsewhere. Chicago is nearly bankrupt.
Michigan is without a doubt no surprise. It's not exclusive to Detroit either. Saginaw is horrible, Grand Rapids is steadily climbing, Jackson is a pothole, Kalamazoo has a lot going on, and Muskegon's form of employment is burglary.
Yeah because of Cleveland and Youngstown which are violent crime epicenters of Ohio. You definitely have to watch your ass in both Cleveland and Youngstown even during the day. Toledo isn’t all that much better.
Well first, two different cities there with way different cultures. Singapore doesn't even allow gum, so that gives you a clue. Japan doesn't report many crimes against women, they don't think it' important enough and they don't want to dirty up their crime numbers.
When the people are highly educated and respectful, this happens. East and Southeast Asian cities are quite safe cities. Even in the Philippines, inspite of their gun culture where you can see armed security guards almost everywhere, it’s much safer to live there than any big city in USA.
Because they have something like a 99% conviction rate for criminals who are charged with crimes. In a nutshell, culture = everything. And not all cultures are created equal.
I live in Harrisburg, PA. Sirens, helicopters, gun shots as we speak. This town is insane! But also a very close knit community. Kind of surprised Pennsylvania isn’t listed. Philly is pretty bad, Lebanon, York, Lancaster.
I worked law enforcement and security in Fresno. I retired to Texas Hill Country. Just before I moved a homeless man waving a sword came at my car in daylight while waiting at a red light.
Yes, 100%! I love visiting Chattanooga but every time we go out, we all go together no questions about it. Unfortunately Nashville (especially downtown) has become very dangerous. I was born and raised outside of Nashville. Never toured downtown and honestly I have no desire to do it now.
The 15 rural counties in Nevada doesn’t have a fraction of the crime that Washo(Reno) and Clark(Las Vegas) has. I live in Lincoln County and it’s one of the best decisions I made moving here in 2020.
I took a criminology class back in the day and the sheriff that taught it said most crime is out west or in the southeast. Not much has changed. Criminals like warmer weather.
They should just listen places where people actually live. But you seem to forget Incest and bestiality is a crime soo... you may want to rethink your stance
Actually Chicago crime rate is not as high as media portrays is you use "Per Capita" - Because population is so large the number of crimes is large but not as a percentage of population.
You obviously have never been was in NYC for four weeks, never felt unsafe, nor saw any crime. Any crime that happens in NYC is reported around the world especially here in Australia.😊
New York's got some trouble areas, but NYC is far safer than most cities - and has a much lower per capita crime rate than places like Oklahoma City, Charleston, Indianapolis or Anchorage. NYC does have a higher than average percent of media companies - which means its shit is in the wind for everyone to know about.
Actually Briggs, quite a few things have been said about other parts of Missouri. The state's 3rd city of Springfield topped the FBI list of the 20 cities with the highest violent crime rates in the nation. The city also made the list in 2021. There are many rural communities in Missouri with high crime rates. Mostly due to the meth epidemic & drug trafficking
sorry but that is ridiculous lol. I have lived in cities on both coasts and in Springfield Missouri. it is far from being among the most violent. that is laughable. Talk about violence in Missouri try st louis
Topeka, Kansas had 15 more homicides then Springfield and it's 60,000 less people. I'll take my chances in Springfield. Far worse smaller cities in the U.S. then Springfield.
We had a one of our Depot's in Memphis. Nobody walked out of the fenced area unless leaving to the interstate. If you had to go thru town, the streets were terrible. It was the major thru fare and went past where the container ship came in. Traffic 24 hours a day
Nice to see that Mississippi is actually one of the safer states. I've lived in Gulfport for all of my 40 years and the worst thing to happen to me was some kids broke into my house in 2006 and stole my Game Boys and some jewelry. But there have been some murders here, just like anywhere else in the world. All in all I feel pretty safe here in Mississippi compared to a big city like LA, NYC, or nearby New Orleans.
Mississippi has had a Top 10 homicide rate since forever though. Two reasons we don't make these lists... 1. Jackson doesn't submit crime information correctly we already know how violent and corruct Jackson is.. if you're from Mississippi 😂 2. Because Mississippi doesn't have "property crime". Yeah, half the state is ya know... ya know. The coast is one of the best areas in Mississippi, buts let's be real.. you'll get shot in Jackson, Meridian, Vicksburg.. the entire Mississippi Delta. The whole state isn't ghetto and dangerous no, but neither are half of these states on here. I feel way more comfortable in anywhere in Texas than Jackson.
Briggs, I lived in rural Alabama. One night I left my black wallet in the car, on the dash, with the doors unlocked. Next morning the wallet was still there. In fact I forgot to lock my car doors two dozen times in two years, and never an item missing. It’s safe in Alabama except Montgomery, Birmingham, and maybe Mobile a little bit.
@@johncarlo2630 Does he still have a job considering, "City shuts down Loma Verde Motel due to deplorable living conditions, constant crime" that was in the news a few days ago?
This is where Mr briggs needs to be corrected in terms of California. The crime is not just high in the cities you mention it also has expanded to the following: i know first hand from decades of experience. Here you go: Sacramento Rancho Cordova Elk Grove Stockton Antioch Fresno Modesto Ceres Turlock Bakersfield Fairfield Redding Manteca Lathrop Pleasanton Dublin Tracy Livermore Shall I go on?
Oh yes, thought of a few more towns for which i had "experiences", more towns on the turd list include: Crows landing Chowchilla Fremont Pittsburgh Brentwood..gross Citrus heights Ripon .. losers from east bay and drug growth out of hand. Visalia Tulare Lancaster Hilmar Livingston May as well live in a 3rd world country.
The three states I genuinely felt unsafe in were Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Indiana. There were parts of Mississippi and Pennsylvania that seem post-apocalyptic. Most big cities aren't that bad, outside of areas most people would have no reason to go to.
I live in a State with a huge crime rate. Im in a blue coller neighbor hood and have no problem with theft in any way. There are areas with in 10 miles I wont get out of my car. Its all in the neighbors.
The thing about Chicago is that, outside of things like the weird shooting spree that was happening in the Loop a couple of years ago, people who know the city know where the hotbeds mostly are. And statistically, your chances are better if you don't go there. You still keep your wits about you at all times, but there are still places where you aren't going to be shot stepping out of your door. What's wild is that I spend a lot of time in Chicago and have yet to be a victim of crime. But I've endured three property crimes in Minneapolis.
@@cherylhulting1301 I can agree as someone from the New York Metropolitan Area that frequents Chicagoland. Its about minding your own business and being aware of your surroundings. I've even been to the South Side late at night with a friend who is aa CTA bus driver. We generally do not have issues.
@@cherylhulting1301 property crime is definitely worse, youre a sitting duck, especially if they go INTO houses. That being said i rather not be at risk for muggings in a city either..
The fact of the matter is that almost all large cities in the every one of these United States has an obscene level of crime. Most smaller cities, towns and rural areas have low crime rates, though I have heard of rural towns with drug related crime or with drug trafficking gang activity.
I'm sure all of those affluent Californian retirees are really driving crime rates. You can see totally see it with *checks notes* Arizona's declining crime rates.
Yeah no joke about that I despise those people They have brought hell with them whatever they go A lot of drama when I was in Arizona in the '90s all those anti-gun signs on the windows I know at least half of those were from California business owners and I always resented them for that Now these fruitcake California people have hell in the backyard It's no fun there fellas.
I saw a billboard once in Nevada that read “What happens in Vegas could get you 15 to life” and in parentheses “(we also have the death penalty here)”.
I think it would be more useful to give the ratings per cities mentioned rather than the whole state, different areas of a state are gonna be where numbers are higher of course, so its best to know how the cities rank individually
@@FranklinJuniper-uh2lk yea but im saying its useful to know rankings by city, even if its a different source because ultimately its hard to know what the deal is
I moved to Oregon from Arkansas. Never experienced any crime. Here in Oregon there are shootings nearly every night, car theft, arsenists. I don’t know this scale is wrong.
I live in Oregon--I'm not seeing the same thing you do. In fact, I live on a houseboat, and my main entrance does not lock. I've never worried about it.
Portland, we lived 28 yrs. Moved 4 yrs ago to Florida. Crime and taxes high. Saving 38% in income taxes SS taxes, howmowners...all insurances. We visit Oregon, but it's not realistic to retire there with any future money cost of living savings. Oregon government SUCKS YOUR savings and paycheck dry. Sad state for young up and coming adults. Crazy politicians there also.
Crime, Too Much Obtrusive, Ineffective, and Bossy Government, and too many Bad Drivers and Illegal Alien Criminals are Why I moved to southeast Idaho in July 2024. It's Much better, Saner, and Safer here than there.
Speaking of Missouri, I'm surprised you didn't mention the crime rate is above average in Springfield. It isn't the worst crime rate I've ever seen(versus say like Pine Bluff, Arkansas), but it is above average for what a city of its size should be at. Thanks to myself once researching city and town profiles, on the website and message board City Data. And though it is not in Missouri, Tulsa(OK) unfortunately also had an above average crime rate.
It seems to me that you frequently interchanging “crime rates” with “total crimes”! Yes, NY City’s total crimes committed is relatively high, but the “crime rate” is VERY low!
I wonder how much of a difference it would be if you took out Detroit and Flint's crime rates. There's still some other trouble areas like Lansing and Saginaw, but those first two are way over performing for the rest
what surprises me is that people demonstrate against (not institutionalised) police brutality, while apparently there are much much bigger issues to protest against.... If all these stats are correct, why isn't anybody protesting against violent crimes, theft, SA, etc etc etc????? I guess most people prefer 'feeling' righteous over being right...

Crime is more about zip codes than it is states.
Bad zipper codes also say a lot.
The only zip codes that matter are the zip codes where everyone lives.
It's actually more about demographics than anything else. Why else do you think Maine is the safest state?

Actually Chicago crime rate is not as high as media portrays is you use "Per Capita" - Because population is so large the number of crimes is large but not as a percentage of population.

It’s safe in Alabama except Montgomery, Birmingham, and maybe Mobile a little bit.
And you could throw in gadsden maybe, Huntsville and most other places in Alabama are mostly safe
Good info thanks for warning us.
Great story about the thwarted catalytic converter theft, Briggs!
I am sure some people stood up a cheered when that hit the news a couple years ago.
I was born and raised in Tennessee. Crime has always been bad here. Chattanooga is bad also!!!
Did I hear that correctly: It's not a true fact unless the FBI says it is? Riiiiiiiight. :)
Back in the early '70s Peach Tree Street in Atlanta was a hippie mecca. Lots of drugs and some violent crime. I haven't been there in decades.
Best Bbq according to Briggs has a ring to it, I would subscribe.
Perception vs reality, good job Mr Briggs! 👍
Usually the highest crime rate states also have the most corrupt cops
good one !!! interesting !!!!
15:35 - #3 is New Mexico, and within the state, Albuquerque is the worst city. And within Albuquerque, you got the "War Zone". The name says it all.
I have a friend who actually lives in the war zone, he is an employee at the Verde Loma motel. Rough place
@@johncarlo2630 Does he still have a job considering, "City shuts down Loma Verde Motel due to deplorable living conditions, constant crime" that was in the news a few days ago?
@ yes he does, he is actively helping the owner renovate the motel
This is where Mr briggs needs to be corrected in terms of California. The crime is not just high in the cities you mention it also has expanded to the following: i know first hand from decades of experience. Here you go:
Sacramento
Rancho Cordova
Elk Grove
Stockton
Antioch
Fresno
Modesto
Ceres
Turlock
Bakersfield
Fairfield
Redding
Manteca
Lathrop
Pleasanton
Dublin
Tracy
Livermore
Shall I go on?
Oakland is not on your list
@@dangreene3895 seriously right? ICE could spend half a decade trying to clean up the "Valley" and East Bay alone.
Oh yes, thought of a few more towns for which i had "experiences", more towns on the turd list include:
Crows landing
Chowchilla
Fremont
Pittsburgh
Brentwood..gross
Citrus heights
Ripon .. losers from east bay and drug growth out of hand.
Visalia
Tulare
Lancaster
Hilmar
Livingston
May as well live in a 3rd world country.
It’s almost like the redder the area the higher the crime. I see a correlation. 😅
@@LiveBalanced365
Vote red, expect more crime. It seems to be related.
I was just checking my subs and here we are.
Beware coming to Memphis TN ! It's no joke!
Interesting, as always.
The three states I genuinely felt unsafe in were Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Indiana. There were parts of Mississippi and Pennsylvania that seem post-apocalyptic. Most big cities aren't that bad, outside of areas most people would have no reason to go to.
I live in a State with a huge crime rate. Im in a blue coller neighbor hood and have no problem with theft in any way. There are areas with in 10 miles I wont get out of my car. Its all in the neighbors.
Thank you for the video
Woah! Is that friendly sarcasm or are you actually throwing shade at Donut? lol.
Briggs. I’m a big comedy fan. I know you used to do stand up. Where’s the best place to find it?
“Where to relocate to spice up your life with a little panic and insomnia” 😂
My catalytic converter was taken at 8 AM in the McDonald's parking lot off I25 in Colorado springs. I was inside eating breakfast.
To be fair, California has the same crime problem that Chicago does: generally not terrible overall, but oh for the raging hotbeds...
The thing about Chicago is that, outside of things like the weird shooting spree that was happening in the Loop a couple of years ago, people who know the city know where the hotbeds mostly are. And statistically, your chances are better if you don't go there. You still keep your wits about you at all times, but there are still places where you aren't going to be shot stepping out of your door.
What's wild is that I spend a lot of time in Chicago and have yet to be a victim of crime. But I've endured three property crimes in Minneapolis.
@@cherylhulting1301 I can agree as someone from the New York Metropolitan Area that frequents Chicagoland. Its about minding your own business and being aware of your surroundings. I've even been to the South Side late at night with a friend who is aa CTA bus driver. We generally do not have issues.
@@cherylhulting1301 property crime is definitely worse, youre a sitting duck, especially if they go INTO houses. That being said i rather not be at risk for muggings in a city either..
@@cherylhulting1301nope Chicago sucks as a whole
The fact of the matter is that almost all large cities in the every one of these United States has an obscene level of crime. Most smaller cities, towns and rural areas have low crime rates, though I have heard of rural towns with drug related crime or with drug trafficking gang activity.
Arizona is having ALOT of Criminals from California relocating there.
That's also true of Nevada, Colorado and other States that are experiencing a lot of incoming Californians
I'm sure all of those affluent Californian retirees are really driving crime rates.
You can see totally see it with *checks notes* Arizona's declining crime rates.
Yeah no joke about that I despise those people They have brought hell with them whatever they go A lot of drama when I was in Arizona in the '90s all those anti-gun signs on the windows I know at least half of those were from California business owners and I always resented them for that Now these fruitcake California people have hell in the backyard It's no fun there fellas.
People are leaving California going back to where they came from. GOOD!
I saw a billboard once in Nevada that read “What happens in Vegas could get you 15 to life” and in parentheses “(we also have the death penalty here)”.
Opinions about California are often litmus tests for Dunning-Kruger.
Always enjoy your content. Very interesting video. Thanks!
....whooooooo. wild list
I think it would be more useful to give the ratings per cities mentioned rather than the whole state, different areas of a state are gonna be where numbers are higher of course, so its best to know how the cities rank individually
The FBI rankings were by state
@@FranklinJuniper-uh2lk yea but im saying its useful to know rankings by city, even if its a different source because ultimately its hard to know what the deal is
I moved to Oregon from Arkansas. Never experienced any crime. Here in Oregon there are shootings nearly every night, car theft, arsenists. I don’t know this scale is wrong.
What city ? Portland?
I live in Oregon--I'm not seeing the same thing you do. In fact, I live on a houseboat, and my main entrance does not lock. I've never worried about it.
Portland, we lived 28 yrs. Moved 4 yrs ago to Florida. Crime and taxes high. Saving 38% in income taxes
SS taxes, howmowners...all insurances. We visit Oregon, but it's not realistic to retire there with any future money cost of living savings. Oregon government SUCKS YOUR savings and paycheck dry. Sad state for young up and coming adults. Crazy politicians there also.
I lived in Fairbanks in the late 90s and at least back then the crime seemed to mostly be in one part of town. The rest of the city felt safe.
Lets not forget about Billings MT and ND,SD
Crime, Too Much Obtrusive, Ineffective, and Bossy Government, and too many Bad Drivers and Illegal Alien Criminals are Why I moved to southeast Idaho in July 2024. It's Much better, Saner, and Safer here than there.
SE Idahoan here. Welcome!
At least You're not from California
As a fellow Baltimore resident, I am very shocked and proud to see that MD is not on this list LOL
Speaking of Missouri, I'm surprised you didn't mention the crime rate is above average in Springfield. It isn't the worst crime rate I've ever seen(versus say like Pine Bluff, Arkansas), but it is above average for what a city of its size should be at. Thanks to myself once researching city and town profiles, on the website and message board City Data.
And though it is not in Missouri, Tulsa(OK) unfortunately also had an above average crime rate.
Gritty charm of Detroit, lol.
Albuquerque is bad!! Especially for a small city
Albuquerque itself is well over 500,000 population. That is not a small city. Taos is a small city along with Gallup.
ALBUQUERQUE come on vacation. Leave them on probation!
Crimes are actually about location, location, location..
Yep 👍
Try Hartford or new haven ct or Bridgeport ct bro 😮
What’s scary is all of those numbers are skewed and are way higher.
It seems to me that you frequently interchanging “crime rates” with “total crimes”! Yes, NY City’s total crimes committed is relatively high, but the “crime rate” is VERY low!
I'm surprised that Florida didn't appear here, although I would expect the FBI list to rank them higher than viewers did
Don't criminalize my Colorado or it's going to get real ugly
Too late. It's already been criminalized and it's ugly anywhere around Dumbver
@safeandeffectivelol nope just LoDO and Aurora because of Woke Demoncrappers
@DENVEROUTDOORMAN I have friends in Pueblo. They say it's just as bad as Denver
I wonder how much of a difference it would be if you took out Detroit and Flint's crime rates. There's still some other trouble areas like Lansing and Saginaw, but those first two are way over performing for the rest
So grateful to live in Hawaii -- expensive, but with one of the lowest crime rates anywhere.
I want to start a drinking game and take a shot whenever you say BBQ on this channel!! lol thanks for the info
How stupid
Thank you!
what surprises me is that people demonstrate against (not institutionalised) police brutality, while apparently there are much much bigger issues to protest against.... If all these stats are correct, why isn't anybody protesting against violent crimes, theft, SA, etc etc etc????? I guess most people prefer 'feeling' righteous over being right...
