There were 19,796 murders in the USA in 2023, around 5.76/100k inhabitants, putting it at around the 50th place in the world. There were 1711 murders in these cities for 6 million inhabitants, so without them the US would be at 5.4/100k, not changing its ranking. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate https://news.wttw.com/2024/01/02/shootings-homicides-chicago-drop-13-2023-and-returned-pre-pandemic-levels-violence https://detroitmi.gov/news/detroit-ends-2023-fewest-homicides-57-years-double-digit-drops-shootings-and-carjackings-thanks-dpd https://slmpd.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/2023_Homicide_Stats_for_Website.pdf https://mpdc.dc.gov/dailycrime https://www.phillypolice.com/crime-data/crime-statistics/
