Yeah, I think Gary, IN is much more dangerous than StL based on crime rates and what not, but apparently they have a different way of calculating it than just crime rate. They take into account the form of crime, so that can skew it quite a bit.

Yeah, I know the results are pretty flawed. The study doesn't take into account St. Louis County, which is about 1 million people (compared to 350,000 in StL City) and there's virtually no crime in STL county.
