Hearing Nothing at the moment
St. Louis may be the home of the World Champion baseball team, but's also home to the title of the least safe city in the United States -- probably not a distinction it would prefer to have:
The city has long fared poorly in the rankings of the safest and most dangerous American cities compiled by Morgan Quitno Press. Violent crime surged nearly 20 percent in St. Louis from 2004 to last year, when the rate of such crimes rose most dramatically in the Midwest, according to FBI figures released in June.
"It's just sad the way this city is," resident Sam Dawson said. "On the news you hear killings, someone's been shot."
Coincidentally, the last name of St. Louis' mayor is "Slay." No, really.
If you're interested in the complete list of dangerous cities -- and safe ones -- the list is here. Is your city on there anywhere?
