Pueblo, Colorado

What comes to your mind when you think of Colorado? The Rocky Mountains? Stunning ski resorts? Impressive river trails? Well, that's certainly what you'll see if you travel to the likes of Aspen, Colorado Springs, or Boulder - but not if you travel to Pueblo. Often called the 'Steel City,' this place is one of the largest steel producers in the whole country. But this thriving economy hasn't done anything for the crime rate.

With a violent crime rate of around 1,052 per 100,000 people, this crime rate is something that puts many people off. In fact, many people are leaving their homes in Pueblo in search of safer neighborhoods.
