CA had 11 of the 25. Corona (!) and Orange were in the top 25, along with some other notable Bay Area suburbs. Anaheim, Costa Mesa, and Santa Ana were also in the top 100. Los Angeles also makes the top 100, but Irvine is no where to be found.

#1 was Naperville, a suburb of Chicago, which has seen a 50% spike in murder this yr so that's interesting.

The methodology is only looking at 6 major crimes, with the most weight (50% of total) on robbery and assault. You can debate methodologies on these type of rankings so not worthwhile to do so. But we should all acknowledge even the worst of OC is not bad. Irvine and OC is a special place and we should all be thankful!
