CrimeReads.com has an article about a period in the 1980s and 90s when there was an average of one bank robbery every hour in Los Angeles.
Between 1985 and 1995 the approximately 3,500 retail bank branches in the region were hit 17,106 times. 1992, the worst year of all, there was an almost unimaginable 2,641 heists, one every 45 minutes of each banking day. On a particularly bad day for the FBI that year, bandits committed 28 bank licks.
