Zone three cities are areas where violent protests and riots have taken place, and the rioters have employed deadly force with little to no attempt at mitigating response from local authorities. At best, any local response is merely token resistance. In these areas, violence is likely to occur in these areas without warning. Additionally, police and/or prosecutors are likely to bring the full weight of the law down upon those who attempt to defend themselves from these actors.
Colorado: Alamosa
Georgia: Columbus (fatality)
Maryland: Baltimore
Nebraska: Omaha (fatality)
New Mexico: Albuquerque (fatality)
Washington, DC
Zone 4 zones are those where deadly force has been used to kill and/or seriously injure anyone who the insurgents feel are not sufficiently sympathetic or supportive of their goals. Additionally, the local authorities are incapable or unwilling to oppose those who would commit these acts. Anyone in these areas is advised that violence is occurring and will continue to occur in these areas, and for this reason the area should be avoided.
Illinois: Chicago (3 fatalities)
Indiana: Indianapolis (2 fatalities)
Kentucky: Louisville (fatality)
Minnesota: Minneapolis-Saint Paul (at least 3 fatalities)
New York: New York City ( 3 fatalities)
Pennsylvania: Philadelphia (2 fatalities)
Wisconsin: Kenosha (2 fatalities)
Oregon and Washington: The entire Interstate 5 corridor from the Canadian border south to Eugene, Oregon (more than a dozen fatalities)
I reviewed protests/riots in nearly 500 US cities, and have compiled this list of cities where the insurgency is most violent.. I cannot guarantee that this list is completely accurate, but every attempt was made to be as accurate as possible. If any of you feel that this list has unfairly added an area, or I need to add an area, feel free to post that in comments.

Going to disagree with your classification of Miami.
There were 2 small incidents that had a small amount of violence and were suppressed by PD. We have not had any more problems since the second week of June.

I'm surprised you didn't have Columbus Ohio on the list due to the fires set by rioters.

Thanks for putting this together.

As a Canadian, I'm seeing the same forces stir shit up in the YS starting up here. I'd say Toronto, Ontario is a zone 2 and Vancouver bc and Montreal QU are zobe 1 on the verge of zone 2.
Our BLM is affiliated with AIM the American Indian Movement. Are you seeing similar links in the states?

I'm curious about Huntsville. We had one protest and the police made the air spicier than a quality southern hot sauce in about 10 minutes. Haven't had any trouble since then.

Any violence gets a city placed in Zone 1, for the simple fact that you have insurgents in your area that are willing to get violent.

Please add Baltimore in Zone 1 or 2.
We just had this incident:

Happen upon this post some few days ago but lacking a goo gle (or g-mail) account I couldn't post a couple of links I thought you might find useful.
However my girlfriend does have such an account and as she's only now just available:
https://acleddata.com/special-projects/us-crisis-monitor/
Interestingly (to me) that source's map somewhat resembles another I was earlier familiar with:
https://vividmaps.com/trumpland-and-clinton-archipelago/
The second map is that which I speak of.
Hope you find these useful.

How are you defining violence?
JK of Arkansas · September 9, 2020 at 9:33 pm
Well … not knowing how 'the Pharmacist' would answer that if you'd ask CNN I reckon they'd say "Anything we say it is." Then there's that Acled group I linked above – apparently their opinion is "Whatever the SLPC says it is."
Myself I think I'd go with that shopworn "I don't know how to define it but I know it when I see it."
For instance that map ACLED has on its site showing "violence" having occurred in at least three places in extreme north-central Arkansas – as it happens I've a nephew serving as a state cop liaising with the US Marshals Service, he say's "Weren't no such animal."
And as I'm near dead center west to east of north Arkansas and less than nine miles from the Missouri line and've only resorted to a few firearms for plinking beer cans I reckon I agree there ain't been.
No such animal I intend.

@ Pax: great question. I think I will make it the subject of its own post.
