Reddit reviews Murder City: The Untold Story of Canada's Serial Killer Capital, 1959-1984

I know it's Canada, not the US... but London, ON is (unofficially) known as having one of the, if not the, highest density of serial killers compared to population from the 60's to the 80's. It's actually why we have the Block Parent program up here.

I you haven't read this book, it's a good one: https://www.amazon.ca/Murder-City-Canadas-Capital-1959-1984/dp/1460261828

Pretty sure I got it from Murder City. Or my mom trying to scare me as a kid.

That's a pretty interesting book though. It's from the records of an old OPP officer who was in charge of investigating a number of murders in London's surrounding area.

There is a book called "murder city" which outlines how at one point in history London had more serial killers per capita than any city in the world. But it was almost 60 years ago iirc

The book is called "Murder City", link to Amazon below to show you. However, it can be purchased downtown in local London bookstores.

There is some "weight" to the theory, but as others have pointed out, this city does not take critical analysis of any kind very well. Ironically because this city revolts so strongly against any bad press, and always has, this has allowed some pretty dark things to exist here.

When they are brought to light, more often than not the reaction is "oh, that happened in the past, we are not like that now."

Here's the book:
