If they are per-capita then you don't need similarly sized cities. I was comparing Chicago's per capita numbers to the US's

- Retric 4y agoChicago’s per capita murder rate is much higher than the US. In 2021 Chicago had 29.6 per 100k people where the US averaged 6.5 per 100k in 2020. The 4 least dangerous districts in Chicago are actually slightly below to the US’s average murder rate. https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Ander%20testimony.pdf https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Ander%20testi... The point of roughly equivalent sized cities is small entities can be much larger statistical outliers. A small city can go from a higher rate than Chicago one year to 0 the next year. Meanwhile Chicago’s numbers don’t really change with a single mass shooting etc.
