As horrible as this is, I'm not worried as a landlord. There are 3.6 million evictions filed in the US every year. There are 10.6 million landlords in the US. If you try to look up landlords killed by tenants, an article pops up once every couple of years. Statistically it is probably safer than a lot of "safe professions". 

FYI, you have a 1 in 5,500 chance of being murdered in Chicago. Not as a landlord, just as a person being in Chicago.
