I was in Philly when I was 5, so much history.
But I wonder if Wichita's murder rate is higher than say....Minneapolis for instance.

Minneapolis is a nice city--and though I don't know the stats, it's always felt really safe to me. Parts of Philadelphia... let's just say you lock your car doors, and drive as fast as you can. And the weird thing is that other parts of the city are really nice.
As for Wichita--40 murders seems high for a small-ish city. What if you adjust for population? Philly is around 2 million, but 5.8 if you include the Metro area. And they have, I think, 320 homicides so far this year. How big is Wichita?
