Research looked at cities which were not at war and
were populated by more than 300,000 people.

Venezuelan capital Caracas has been revealed as the
most violent city in the world - with 119.87 homicides
for every 100,000 residents in 2015.

With 41 cities on the list, Latin America is home to the
most on the planet, while Brazil alone has 21.

The highest increase in violence since 2014 was in San
Salvador, El Salvador. The murder rate there increased
by 81% in just one year, from 61.21 homicides per
100,000 inhabitants in 2014 to 111.03 in 2015. The
Central American country of just six million people has
seen gang-related violence push death tolls to similar
levels as seen during the country’s civil war in the
1980s.
While the majority of cities are in developing or semi-
developed countries, four cities were in the United
States: Detroit, Baltimore, St Louis and New Orleans.

However, some improvements were noted in Juarez,
Mexico and Colombia's Medellin, where murder rates
have fallen dramatically since the 1990s.
The list did not take into account of war zones or
places with fewer than 300,000 residents.
