Murder rates (per 100k people):
Detroit: 38.8 (2018);
Cheyenne: 3.1 (2018);
London: 1.84 (2019);
China: 1.0 (2011);
Not sure where you are going with this, but I'd say the answer is Detroit??

For comparison the US national rate in 2019 was 5 and NYC (more comparable to London and Shanghai) has a rate of 2.8.
Yeah, look ... I like the 2A too and don’t think guns cause higher murder rates. But there is no data to support the narrative that Europe and other countries are more dangerous in some way because they don’t have guns.
Edit: To be clear, there is no evidence that they are more dangerous. They look safer.
The average small town will have a maximum of 1 or 2 murders per year. Cheyenne has only 60,000 people.
