They found that, over the course of the TV show’s 1984-96 run, an average of 5.3 corpses turned up in Cabot Cove each year. The producers estimated that Cabot Cove had a population of 3,560 so that equates to 1,490 murders per million people.
That’s about 60% higher than Honduras, the real-world capital of the world, where a murder occurs every 74 minutes.
Though each of the untimely deaths in Cabot Cove were solved, one has to wonder if it wasn’t more than a little coincidental that they always seemed to happen when Jessica was in town.
