While Huntsville population 173,000 (2007) had 22.I`m glad to see B-ham is improving though becasue last year they B-ham was at #5 and now it`s 7. New York city was ranked in the 200`s which is a big shocker to me.The same website aslo say`s Louisiana is the nations most dangerous state and alabama was ranked 15th most dangerous state.

I agree wit u because I grew up in the bottom which is 1 street over from orange groove projects and it pretty bad down there,every night we had gun shots ringing out and i have seen some bad stuff go on, so i know that mobile is dangerous in certain areas.But when i came up here 2 huntsville its like a totally different world up here.Lately its been taking a dive down hill but still its nothing like were i come from....
