Crime in Bogalusa

Take a surf on over to this page, read it and weep, fellow citizens.

Compare Bogalusa to anywhere. You'll get numbers, a graph, and two tables. One shows the crimes per 100,000 people in each city chosen, and what the national average is.

Bogalusa was above the national average in every single category in 2004. Which is well before Hurricane Katrina and those transplants.

Aggravated assault and burglary were about three times the nat'l average.

Oh, yeah, the city of Bogalusa was so calm and peaceful before those dang Katrina refugees, huh? [sarcasm]

Link to the comparison page shamelessly borrowed from a message at the Hard Copy board - see list on the left.
