Original Note:
The 'homicides' are due to higher rates of suicide, not murders. This post is misleading. "Homicides are higher in urban areas, but overall gun deaths— which are deaths by suicide—are higher in rural areas" https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/people-in-rural-areas-die-at-higher-rates-than-those-in-urban-areas/
