Top 10 most dangerous cities in America, ranked
Hold on to your hat because this list might be more alarming than your worst tech glitches. Security Gauge pulled crime data from 18,000 agencies — including the FBI and local police — to find the most dangerous U.S. cities in 2023. Did yours make the list?
Most dangerous US cities
1. Bessemer, Alabama
Once known as “The Marvel City,” Bessemer is now infamous for a different reason. Home to just 27,000, this town clocked 33.18 violent crimes per 1,000 residents.
2. Monroe, Louisiana
While it reigned supreme on the crime charts for the past two years, Monroe’s been nudged down by Bessemer. Its 47,000 residents face a 1 in 38 chance of becoming a victim of violent crime.
3. Saginaw, Michigan
It’s not just proximity to Detroit. Saginaw has its own crime challenges. Case in point: A tragic shooting at an unsanctioned street bash that killed two and injured 15 more.
4. Memphis, Tennessee
Rock’ n roll, Elvis and … crime? With a population of around 700,000, Memphis has seen its murder rates climb, with experts pointing fingers at everything from policy to policing.
5. Detroit, Michigan
Detroit’s been grappling with crime for years, fueled by urban decay and population decline. With a crime rating of 23 per 1,000, locals face a 1 in 43 chance of becoming a victim.
