Over the past 2-3 years my old neighborhood, Austin, has been at #1 or #2 at years end for both Shootings (non-death) and Shooting Deaths, per Hey Jackass. You can't believe the City's numbers.
But the difference between HJ! and the Chicago Health Atlas is that the former bases its ranking tables on count, and the latter on rate.
Austin still ranks high on the rate list, at #11. The rate for the period was 61 per 100K, just above #12, East Garfield Park, which was at 60.7. #10, Auburn Gresham, is at 67.7.
