Statistics don’t tell the whole story, but Indianapolis is pretty consistently ranked as one of the top 20 most high-crime cities in the nation.


That's fair, my experience is just anecdotal. According to the locals it has improved significantly in just the last couple of years. However, that may possibly be just due to gentrification. The crime rate is probably averaged across the huge surface area of the city, whereas my range is fairly confined to the inner portion.


Care to share one of those rankings? I looked at quite a few and couldn’t find any ranking Indianapolis in the top 20.


==The website SafeWise recently found Indianapolis to be the 10th most dangerous city in the United States based on 2016 FBI crime statistics and population data.==
