from WikiP:
Besides its gangland problems, Chicago saw a major rise in violent crime
starting in the late
1960s.[1]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_Chicago#cite_note-2004report-1>
Murders
in the city peaked first in 1974, with 970 murders when the city's
population was over three million, resulting in a murder rate of around 29
per 100,000, and again in 1992, with 943 murders when the city had *fewer* than
three million people, resulting in a murder rate of 34 per 100,000
