Cincinnati! Take that, Seedy & Sav :D
Over-the-Rhine (as featured in the film "Traffic") to be exact. Sad that what was once a clean, orderly immigrant neighborhood is now such a cesspool.

Over-the-Rhine Most Dangerous Neighborhood in U.S.
* Neighborhoodscout.com list of Dangerous Cities
A website which provides crime data for insurance companies says the Over-the-Rhine area is the most dangerous neighborhood in the United States.
NeighborhoodScout.com says it used proprietary computer models to estimate incidences of violent crimes, including murder, non-negligent manslaughter, rape, armed robbery and aggravated assault, for every sub-zip code neighborhood in the U.S. The crime statistics come from local law enforcement agencies and the F.B.I. for the years 2005-2007.
Using their model, Neighborhoodscout.com ranks the zip codes 45210 and 45214, in Over-the-Rhine, as number one most dangerous in the United States.
The website says your chances of becoming a victim of crime in OTR over the course of one year, are 1 in 4.
The next four most dangerous neighborhoods, according to Neighborhoodscout.com, are found in Chicago, Miami, Jacksonville, FL, and Baltimore, Maryland.
Having been there a year or two ago (we made a wrong turn :Embarrass: ), I don't doubt it for a moment. :bleeding:
Congratulations, Cincy :)
Apparently Detroit's great white hope, Delray, didn't even make the top 5. :(

You'd be surprised. For instance one night a gang of thieves stole all the sewer grates and manhole covers in Delray.

I always drive through there, Clark Griswold style, when I've giving visiting friends/in-laws a tour of the city.
Ironically, some of the best bars in Cincy are in OTR, though it's been a while since I've gone out there.
I was shocked, SHOCKED, to discover that the most dangerous neighbourhood in the country is also a black neighbourhood.

Are you seriously saying the Big 10 is better than the Pac-10? :rolleyes:
The last two years the Pac-10 is 9-2 in Bowl games the Big 10 is 4-11. The only teams the Big-10 can beat are other big, slow white teams from the midwest. The next time the Big-10 gets a legitimate NFL QB call me, it will be their first in damn near forever.

I wouldn't be surprised to see USC struggle in that game, they are young, it is very early in the season, and in Columbus. Too bad OSU doesn't improve as the season go on. ;)

There will be a lot of twitching over that game. But it's more commonly referred to as post-mortem spasms.

Ohio State won't be much better at that point. Tressel will be still doing his running back by committee crap at that game (2nd of the season) I bet.

My cousin lives in St. Louis, MO. He got lost in East St. Louis leaving one of the riverboat casinos and pulled up next to a cop parked on the side of the road. His version of the cop's reaction was "What the fuck are you doing around here, drive that way until you get across the river; don't stop for anything: stop signs, stop lights, nothing just get the fuck out of here!"

from wiki:
QuoteMany sections of the street have been gentrified and developed with such stores as MAC Cosmetics, Old Navy, H&M, CVS/pharmacy, and Magic Johnson Theaters. The historic Apollo Theater is here. In collaboration with the community, the city has developed a plan for the 125th Street corridor focusing on reinforcing and building upon its strengths as an arts and cultural corridor
QuoteAs of 2008, former president Bill Clinton maintains an office on 125th Street.

Right by the Cadillac plant. I wouldn't have guessed that was the worst part of the city; but in Detroit it's hard to know where the bad neighborhoods end and the worse neighborhoods begin.
