US: Top 15 Safest Cities And 15 Most Dangerous Cities

SIBY JEYYA
With occasional reports of major shootings, many US locations don't appear to be secure. Other factors contribute to why some cities are the safest and others are unsafe to live in, outside the prevalence of guns and aggressive individuals. The cost of crime is estimated by MoneyGeek's yearly research using the FBI's most recent crime statistics for 263 U.S. cities with populations bigger than 100,000.
To evaluate the cost of crime in each city, the study produces crime data as well as the social costs of various types of crimes. The research lists the top 15 safest US cities as well as the cities with the worst crime rates. In US cities, the cost of crime per capita in 2021 was $1836, an increase of 6% from 2020. With $156 in crime per capita, Naperville, Illinois, is the safest city overall, while St. Louis, Missouri, is the most dangerous.
