And nothing about the murder rate of the U.S. Virgin Islands? Third highest in the world in 2010. 84.226.185.221 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 15:50, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I was wondering about this too. The U.S. Virgin Islands has 52 intentional homicides per 100,000 people per year. In Mexico it is 18 (doubled in the last 5 years) and in the continental U.S. it is 4. Why is it so high? 178.39.255.25 (talk) 11:57, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This seems nothing but a white wash, and should be mentioned:
Top 11 Countries with the Highest Homicide Rates*
* Incidents per 100,000 people - United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime 2018
El Salvador - 52.02
U.S. Virgin Islands (U.S. territory) - 49.28
Jamaica - 43.85
