Check out these numbers for Detroit in 2013. I doubt the Green Zone had remotely as much violence inside its walls.
Murder and non-negligent manslaughter rate per 100,000 people: 45
Total murders and non-negligent manslaughters: 316
Violent crime rate per 100,000 people: 2,072
Total violent crimes: 14,504
Population: 699,889
