Wichita, KS this year....32 homocides in 7 months. Population 380,000

I'm curious as to what the rate is in Calgary...given that the city is over 2X as large.

I bring this up because there have been 2 murders on my mail route in the last 6 days....it just seems like 32 in 7 months for a city this size is out of whack. I realize there is a difference in culture as well, but I'll be checking on other similarly sized American cities.

Anybody have the numbers for Calgary?
