tvc184 Posted 6 hours ago Report Posted 6 hours ago Location matters… It should be obvious that murder or any crime can happen anywhere. Certainly a horrific crime can happen anywhere at any time. But…. The odds or frequency are sometimes heavily skewed to some locations. The Mid-County cities of Nederland, Port Neches and Groves have a population of about 50,000 people. Beaumont is about 2.3 times the size of Mid-County. According to FBI statistics, in the last 5 years Mid-County has had 6 murders. Going by size and on a 1 to 1 ratio, Beaumont should have had 14 murders in the same time period of 5 years. Beaumont has had 79 murders in that time frame and a person has an almost 600% more likely chance of being a victim of a murder in Beaumont. So in comparison to size, Beaumont has had an additional 65 more murders than would have occurred in Mid-County in 5 years. That doesn’t mean that the people in Beaumont are bad because 113,000 people in Beaumont didn’t commit a murder last year. Some people have a difficult time with the fact that some areas have a much higher rate of violent crime and the average person has a much higher percentage of being a victim in those areas. Statements like, “crime can happen anywhere” are 100% correct. It’s also a fact that some areas have a many times higher likelihood of it happening. AggiesAreWe and thetragichippy 2 Quote

I do feel bad for the good families that cannot afford to leave Beaumont for safer areas. I think the "it could happen anywhere" comments are to justify them not being able to move.... Quote
