There were 49 murders in Charlestown between 1975 and 1992 - that is
approx 3 per year

Charlestown's population was 15,000

Roxbury's population now is 76,000

If I did my math right, the murder rate in Roxbury now is roughly
equivalent to the Charlestown murder rate in the 1973 to 1992 span

My math - 76/15 = 5 - so Roxbury is 5X larger than Charleston - if you
scale up the 3 per year from Charlestown, you get 15 per year in
Roxbury - (which I think is the present murder rate for Roxbury)

Yup - 15 murders per year in Roxbury -
