Yes, you are four times more likely to be murdered in Louisiana than in New York City. Five times more in Mississippi. And so on.How did you come to pick Mississippi and Louisiana as your representative rural trump states?
Could it have been cherry picking?
From your own wiki list at
en.wikipedia.org - List of United States cities by crime rate we find
Boise Idaho 0.9 murders per 100,000 population
Bunches of towns in Texas, Florida, at 2.5 per 100,000.
These are red states. All with much lower murder rates than the blue cities you cited against your cherry blossom Mississippi and Louisiana picks.
Of course the real answer is... oh never mind. How is that even relevant on a board like this?
