“Consistent with the extensive poverty, unemployment, and social ills, a 2007 study in the journal Homicide Studies noted that "East St. Louis has consistently experienced a high violent crime rate and continues to report a substantial number of annual homicides."[29] In 2013, the per capita homicide rate in East St. Louis was about 18 times the national average,[30] and had the highest homicide rate of any city in the United States.[31]”
