Today I go Urban Hiking in The MOST Dangerous city in Alabama, Tarrant – according to areavbes.com.
Here is what areavibes.com had to say on their website and why Tarrant in their opinion is the most dangerous city in Alabama:
Tarrant
Population: 6,216
2,520 violent crimes per 100k
violent crimes per day: 6.90
chance of being a victim: 1 in 40
Total Crimes / 100k: 7,086
Tarrant, AL holds the distinction of being the #1 most dangerous city in Alabama with 2,520 violent crimes per 100,000 people. The area continues to struggle with elevated assault (2,215), robbery (254), rape (51) and homicide (0) rates, as the violent crime rate comes in at 516% higher than the Alabama average. Contributing to these numbers could be the higher than average rates of poverty, unemployment, and gang activity. Ongoing efforts from local law enforcement and the community have been created to help reduce the crime rates going forward.
The day I was Urban Hiking in Tarrant I felt perfectly fine. I have been Urban Hiking in other so called Top 10 Most Dangerous in Alabama including, Ensley, Fairfield and Bessemer to name a few – they too seemed safe enough.
So watch the short film and see what you think about Tarrant, Alabama being the MOST DANGEROUS city in Alabama.
