Buffalo named most dangerous place in NYS.

**cheekman** · February 9th, 2015, 07:15 PM

Not good must be all shootings you think.. then they want people to come into the city..

The Queen City is number one on a list of the 10 most dangerous places in New York State.
The ranking was made based on the FBI’s 2013 Uniform Crime Report and data around murders, violent crimes and property crimes.

Buffalo and Niagara Falls have already been named among the top 100 most dangerous cities in America
Holy cow...And crime statistics from the FBI show Buffalo and Niagara Falls have a higher crime rate for both violent and property crime than New York City.

as determined by Movoto.com, a real estate brokerage site, an online real estate brokerage based in San Mateo, CA. And this is the photo they use to depict Buffalo:

The murder rate in Buffalo in 2014 was just about 5 times that of NYC in 2014. Who says? I do because I learned how to apply some elementary math in school. You know what else that means? I didn't go to the BPS.

I wondern if the FBI stats incorporate the pathetic closure rate for homicides and other violent crime in Buffalo. I'm always amused by the "community activists" who bleat about crime in the city when it's the city residents who refuse to cooperate with the police in solving crime. We just need to give them more money and everything will be ok.

Source? The FBI stats are not yet published for 2014, so what was the source?

**grump** · February 10th, 2015, 11:37 AM

I told you the source!

The FBI talking about why using their data for city rankings is misleading:

The FBI said their own statistics are misleading? I don't think they said the statistics are misleading; they said to be careful about the conclusions one draws from them because the causes of crime are many. But the statistics are still the statistics. It's not like they said their statistics are phonied up.
