Do the math.

"C.D.C: murder toll from guns highest in big cities

Large metropolitan areas suffer about two-thirds of all firearm
homicides in the United States, with inner cities most affected,
according to a new report from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention...

...the rate of firearm homicides was higher in inner cities than in
other parts of cities and higher than the murder rate of the country
as a whole, .... People living in 50 of the largest cities, in fact,
accounted for 67% of all firearm homicides...."

Gun deaths shaped by race in America

"Gun deaths are shaped by race in America. Whites are far more likely
to shoot themselves, and African Americans are far more likely to be
shot by someone else.

The statistical difference is dramatic, according to a Washington Post
analysis of data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. A white person is five times as likely to commit suicide
with a gun as to be shot with a gun; for each African American who
uses a gun to commit suicide, five are killed by other people with
guns.
