Interesting. You've made me revise my estimate of the % of murders that are due to gang violence up. My gut says you're right, Chicago probably doesn't generalize well to the rest of the U.S. It could be that there are huge swaths of the country where there basically are no gangs, and so all murders are not gang-related. But still, the data you're showing makes the federal numbers seem way too low... This [0] suggests that about 1/3 of murders in the U.S. go unsolved. 0: https://projectcoldcase.org/cold-case-homicide-stats/ https://projectcoldcase.org/cold-case-homicide-stats/
