According to the FBI webpage you linked to it was 40 murders and non negligent manslaughters per 100,000 people in SF. I don’t know the nuances of the definitions involved so maybe the non negligent manslaughter portion is what causes the disparity in the stats cited.

Still, the low murder rate, by American standards, in SF is almost 5 times higher than London’s.

No it wasn't -- you're misreading "number of murders" as "murder rate per 100,000 people."

I did misread it! I had to reread it twice because I would have sworn on a stack of Bibles that the column label said “per 100,000”.
