You edited as I was posting....
St. Louis, ok, I'll give you that - but I don't think Detroit is considered Midwest, and I don't think you can put Cleveland and Gary up there with Chicago and St. Louis.

When I was growing up in the Lou, we did not have a gang problem--I suspect they do now. And my relatives who were in gangs all lived in Chicago.
We even have a problem here in MN, but guess what? We have our fair share of Bloods, Crips, Disciples, etc., but we also have Asian and Latino gangs. And they are no joke.
Oh and Michigan is considered midwest in a lot of designations. And Gary--whew! Per capita I bet they would compare to Chi and the Lou.
