Before anyone gets too excited, keep in mind that the homicide rate for the US is 5 per 100,000, El Salvador (the highest) is 52 per 100,000, and Puerto Rico is 30... closer to El Salvador than to the US which isn't even that low.
An incomplete list of contiguous US city homicide rates PR is closer to than El Salvador as of 2018:

Does the 'X' mean that those cities have clinched the division title?
