According to who? Do you have a source?

Top violent crime rate per capita US cities [1]:

1. St. Louis 2. Detroit 3. Baltimore 4. Memphis 5. Kansas City

If we include all crime and not just violent crime, it’s still all large cities at the top. Not sure where you’re getting your info.

That list is of the 100 most populous cities in US, so by definition it does not include mid/small cities, towns, and villages.

Per capita, smaller cities are outstanding in their crime.

Even Baltimore is down in 51st place.

This list is incomplete to boot. Large cities often called "war zone" by culture war fighters are largely safer than being in a small town.

St. Louis is sketchy AF but it's hardly a large city, relative to actual large cities.
