Detroit. Gary is not far behind, though.

Every One Says Detroit But It's Actually A Good City... The Worst City Is CleveLand No Offence.

Obviously, its Detroit. With a population of over a million people in the 1950's and now down to 700,000, it's a wonder how the city lasted this long. Corrupt politicians and labor unions are the culprits that brought the motor city to its knees.

Detroit MI

based on violent crime rate, flint Michigan has been #1 for 4 years running, next i'd say Detroit, followed by Oakland, CA, St. Louis, MO, and Memphis, TN
