The World According to Shawn
Tuesday, November 22, 2005
For the second year in a row Camden, New Jersey is ranked number 1 as the most dangerous city in America. I can say that I have had the priviledge of having been to Camden. When you are in Philadelphia along the Deleware River, and you look over to Camden, it looks like a nice place. The Aquarium is right on the waterfront along with a minor league baseball stadium and a couple other really cool looking buildings. Once you venture into Camden apparently you have a 40 % chance of being shot on any given day.
Amazing though how New Jersey can have the worst city on the list and then be in the top 10 for the safest cities in America.
