According to crime statistics there were 269 homicides in Baltimore in 2005,<13> giving it the highest homicide rate per 100,000 of all U.S. cities of 250,000 or more population. <12> Though this is significantly lower than the record-high 353 homicides in 1993, the homicide rate in Baltimore is nearly seven times the national rate, six times the rate of New York City, and three times the rate of Los Angeles.
