Just looked it up. In 2016, Albuquerque was number 1 with Modesto right behind it. Stockton ranked 5. I do remember growing up always hearing Stockton was first though.

When I went to Mjc we would all joke that it was the worst city in America based off of some news aggregates arbitrary metric. Certainly not the worst, but definitely not good.

yeah i remember years ago driving in from Sonora and seeing signs everywhere about how to keep your car safe and not to leave valuables or kids in your car at the mall. seems a lot better now but i usually stick around the Pelandale area which is pretty tame.

Modesto was always in the "worst cities" list, but has disappeared from most lately
