Headline: New York Times, 9/6/2024
And it is not just Philadelphia. Most cities with N.F.L. teams had higher murder rates, and some much higher. São Paulo had less than a third of the murders per capita as the following N.F.L. cities, starting with the highest rate: New Orleans, Baltimore, Cleveland, Detroit, Washington, Kansas City, Cincinnati, Atlanta, Indianapolis, Chicago, Minneapolis, Dallas, Buffalo, Houston, Nashville and Jacksonville.
New York, one of the safest big American cities, also had a slightly higher per capita murder rate than that of São Paulo. And with six homicides in 2022 and a population around 100,000, there even were more murders per capita in quiet Green Bay, Wis., home of the Packers, the team playing the Eagles in Brazil.
