ST. PAUL, MN – Thinking of moving? You might want to think twice before heading to these cities. We’ve counted down the most dangerous places in America for 2025, based on official crime stats from 2024. These cities aren’t just risky—they’re places where locking your doors might not be enough.

From high crime rates to everyday stress, these cities will keep you on your toes. If you’re curious about violent crime trends or need a good reason to stay put, this list is for you. And if you want the full breakdown (with some extra humor from my hubby Jack), don’t miss our accompanying video at the end!

10. Stockton, California

Stockton offers fertile farmland—and a crime rate that’s anything but peaceful. This is a city where folks plant more security cameras than crops. Midnight walks? Definitely not recommended.

9. Milwaukee, Wisconsin

We love Milwaukee—it’s got cheese curds and beer. But it also ranks high for crime. If you visit, hold tight to your wallet and your Harley. Road trips are fun, but theft isn’t.

8. Albuquerque, New Mexico

Known for its beautiful desert views and hot air balloons, Albuquerque also has some hot crime scenes. Take a Breaking Bad tour, just don’t let your tour bus get broken into along the way.

7. Cleveland, Ohio

Cleveland rocks… but the crime rate here rolls just as hard. It’s a city where people have learned to appreciate life from behind locked doors. If you visit, a solid lock should be at the top of your shopping list.

6. Kansas City, Missouri

Known for finger-licking BBQ, Kansas City serves up high crime rates too. Enjoy your ribs, but don’t let someone steal your car keys along with the bill. It’s a city where nothing—especially not your peace of mind—is guaranteed.

5. St. Louis, Missouri

St. Louis offers stunning views from the Gateway Arch, but life here is best enjoyed from behind a security camera. High crime after sporting events is just part of the local experience.

4. Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore’s famous for crab cakes—but it’s also where crime is always on the menu. This isn’t a city for careless strolling. Keep your valuables—and your peace of mind—close at all times.

3. Birmingham, Alabama

With a deep-rooted history and sky-high crime, Birmingham’s motto should be: “Hospitality with a side of home security.” If you plan to move here, make sure your security system is sweeter than the iced tea.

2. Memphis, Tennessee

Memphis is all about the blues and BBQ, but it also hits hard with high crime rates. Keep an eye on your car while visiting Graceland, or you might find yourself singing the blues in more ways than one.

1. Detroit, Michigan

Detroit takes the top spot. This legendary city isn’t just famous for cars—it’s also known for how fast they disappear. If you plan on moving to Motor City, investing in security cameras might be your best bet.
