With a Population 14 Times That of 70% Black Baltimore, New York City Had Fewer Homicides in 2017, 2018, and 2019

New York City has a population 14 times that of Baltimore (8.6 million to 619,000).

Over the past three years, 70 percent black Baltimore has had more murders than New York City.

In 2017. In 2018. And in 2019.

Not per capita, not per 100,000, but in actual numbers.

Think about that for a moment.

Baltimore has a population of 619,000 people, of who 70 percent are black.

New York City has a population of 8.6 million people.

And Baltimore is far, far more dangerous.

For New York City in 2019:

• There were 318 homicides, of which 97 percent were committed by non-whites

For New York City in 2018:

• There were 289 homicides, of which 95 percent were committed by non-whites

For New York City in 2017:

• There were 292 homicides, of which 93 percent were committed by non-whites

For Baltimore in 2019:

• There were 348 homicides, of which 98 percent were committed by blacks

For Baltimore in 2018:

• There were 309 homicides, of which 95 percent were committed by blacks

For Baltimore in 2017:

• There were 342 homicides, of which 95 percent were committed by blacks

Do you understand just how violent the black population of Baltimore is, and why stop and frisk is such a vital tool for police in their war against crime?

In 2019, Baltimore had a homicide rate of 57 per 100,000, making it one of the most dangerous cities on the planet. Question: What’s the homicide rate for blacks in the city, considering whites make up 25% of the population yet committed virtually none of the murders in 2019?
