Crime is a problem in general for some neighborhoods and some

murders occurred in an area where 1% of the population lives.


The 1% would be the rich guys with mansions and swimming
pools?


You don't have to be rich to have a pool.

Just a wild guess, of course.

Here in Brazil it's the opposite, most violent crime occurs in
poor neighborhoods where the population is either unemployed
(unemployment is up to 30% after the right wing coup of 2015, when it
was 4.7%) or have a really low income. Independent of color or race.


Same here. It may even be more concentrated.
