THE SAFEST PLACE TO SWAP HOMES

Getting robbed could ruin any vacation. So if you're traveling to the USA, be sure to swap homes with a resident of New York City. The Federal Bureau of Investigation publishes crime statistics for every US City. The FBI found that New York City is the safest US city, both in terms of per capita crime, and even when ranked with all US cities of over one million residents.


The report comes to us courtesy of RealClearPolitics, which is a neutral site that covers political issues. RCP reports:

"After New York, America's safest cities are: San Jose, Los Angeles, San Diego, El Paso, Honolulu, Denver, Boston, Las Vegas and Louisville.

And the U.S.'s least safe city? That distinction goes to Memphis, Tennessee, with a crime rate of 18% per capita, followed by Atlanta (16%), San Antonio (15.2%), Detroit (13.7%) and Milwaukee (13.4%). These rates reflect the total crimes detailed in the FBI's report divided by the population of the city.

New York also tops the list of safest cities with more than a million residents, beating out Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Diego and San Jose. These cities all saw an impressive reduction in all three major categories of crime."
