I didn't do the math (probably should've), but if you download the excel spreadsheet it lists the murder count at 15, as well as the rate per 100,000 at 15, which as you point out isn't far off, which is why I didn't question it too much but thought if ours was a bit off, the rest were a bit off too. I think the point is still clear though. Yes, it is the murder rate per 100,000.

I think they're listing the murder rate <b>per 100,000</b>. Still ... I did the math, and 15 per 100,000 would be based on 17 murders. So they're still one off ... not that it would change the rate significantly. Based on 18 murders, the rate would be 15.9 per 100,000. PI … I think they’re listing the murder rate per 100,000.
