I wonder how many towns with populations of 15,000 - 35,000 have gone 30 years without any gun deaths.
I'm guessing that out of the 18,000 or so cities, towns and villages in the U.S., and a conservative guess that maybe a third to a half of those are in the 15 - 35K range, probably about a third of those would have gone 30 years without a gun death.

If I'm wrong, then make it 2 or less gun deaths in 30 years, and for sure it's at least 1000 small towns, villages or cities.
