市长亚伦·蒙茨, an ’08 Heidelberg grad, congratulated Stevens on the rank and said he is proud that 吃午饭 continues to be among the safest cities in the state and county: “The men and women who serve in the 吃午饭 Police Department continue to make 吃午饭 a great place to live, and I congratulate Chief Stevens and his department for helping 吃午饭 to again rank on this list.”
According to Backgroundchecks.org, Ohio has the 25th lowest property crime rate and 18th lowest violent crime rate in the United States. In all, 50 Ohio cities earned a 安全 Index score of 0.3 or above, meaning they are very safe communities to live in, while 13 recorded a 0.6 or above, placing them in the upper echelon of U.S. cities in terms of safety.
Backgroundchecks.org based its rankings on 2,929 cities in Ohio with populations above 10,000. The website calculated violent crime rates and property crime rates by dividing the crime numbers by the population to get rates per 1,000. It also calculated the ratio of law enforcement workers to per 1,000.
These were weighted with -50% for the violent crime rate, -25% for the property crime rate, and +25% for the law enforcement rate. The safety index score was the result of that metric, and the higher the number, the more safe the city is.
