It is very difficult to break these killers down to a particular county by the very nature of serial murder. It is very common for serial killers to kill in many different areas, counties, states, countries and sometimes continents. That being said, California has the most serial killers. But it is also the most populated state in the country so that makes sense. California's killers have come from large urban cities from San Diego to San Francisco and beyond. But less populated areas are also well represented. Case in point, the Zodiac (original) killer of the 1960's and 1970's. Although he was never identified it is obvious he came from a smaller town, probably Vallejo, CA, not the more urban City by the Bay. By these statistics it is obvious that location is not at the core of serial murder.
This is proved by the state of Washington. Washington has been the home and/or stomping ground to more serial killers (per capita) than any other state. In simpler terms, Washington state has a relatively small population compared to it's more populated neighbor to the south. It is also the home to the most famous killers from Ted Bundy to Green River Killer Gary Leon Ridgeway. There have been many theories put forth as to why this is so but no single theory explains this completely. The amount of rainfall and limited sunlight being just one of those theories. It is possible that it may be a combination of serveral factors, weather/sunlight under-exposure might contribute but there is no concrete evidence to prove or disprove this.

Because of the way a lot of serial killers work it is almost impossible to tell which cities have killers or not. These types of killers move around so much. Different cities, along major freeways and highways, dumping bodies far from where they were taken from. And prostitutes are a popular target for serial killers. Prostitutes are notorious for moving around also. They go from city to city sometimes. Some will be missing for months before anyone gets worried, and files a missing person's report with police. It must be emphasized that serial killers can pop up anywhere. In small towns, (although its harder to hide anything in a small community), big cities, ect. Although the US has a large percentage of these killers, they are not confined to any one country or area. Additional fact:The FBI estimates that there could be up to 100 serial killers at work in the US at any given time.

A serial killer is a person who kills a number of people with a cooling off period between each murder(usually one murder at one given time, but two murders at one time occasionally happens) and these murders may go on for a period of months or years until the killer is caught. Throughout the last three decades the US serial killer rate has risen 940% and it is estimated that by the next millennium it will claim an average of 11 lives a day. Serial Murder is an epidemic, there are at least 35 serial killers active in the USA today who claim one third of the annual murder rate. The USA has 6% of the world's population yet it has three quarters of all serial killers. Not only are serial killers appearing in more numbers in the US but all over the world countries are terrorised by serial killers which are appearing in more numbers year and year after.
