How Safety Scores Are Calculated

Each city's safety score is calculated by comparing its crime rates to the national average. The score uses a weighted formula: 70% violent crime rate and 30% property crime rate, reflecting the greater severity of violent offenses.

The score runs from 0 (highest crime) to 100 (lowest crime), converted to letter grades:

  • A+ (90-100): Well below national average
  • A (75-89): Below national average
  • B (60-74): Somewhat below average
  • C (40-59): Near national average
  • D (25-39): Above national average
  • F (0-24): Well above national average
