Abstract

64.44% of the time number of homicides is negatively correlated with population in U.S. cities. 33.67% of the time number of homicides is positively correlated with population in U.S. cities. Those U.S. cities without a strong correlation of number of homicides versus population and show a positive population rate has close to the same probability in U.S. cities with a negative correlation in number of homicides versus population. There is close probability of U.S. cities with a positive correlation in number of homicides and population to that with those U.S. cities without a strong correlation of number of homicide versus population rate and show a negative population rate. The national homicide rate is falling.
