CHICAGO, Feb. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The safety data is gathered from several official sources, including the FBI National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). The crime and safety score for each city below incorporates a weighted list of offenses based on the severity of the crime. For example, a crime like rape or manslaughter would be rated heavier (more severe) than a less severe petty theft or fraud. The city's population also normalizes the numbers, so the dynamic of crime in a larger city vs. a smaller city is also considered. These raw safety scores are then ranked nationally and by the state to arrive at a ranking for all the cities in the United States organized by states and cities/towns. The "Safest Cities to Live in" list is located live at: https://housesfor.sale/crime-safety-rank
Founder and CEO, Dominik Mazur, of InfoHome AI (parent company of HousesFor.Sale) stated:
"Prospective homeowners or renters should learn about a neighborhood's crime statistics before moving in. Our mission is to give everyday people more actionable information about real estate than licensed real estate agents possess. Our data science teams carefully curated the data from various official crime-related sources to accurately represent a city's safety and crime statistics." At HousesFor.Sale, the company, created a ranking of cities at both the state and national levels.

We believe it is important for people relocating to be aware of crime in the surrounding community," explained Dominik Mazur, founder and CEO of HousesFor.Sale, the Internet's leading website for exploring houses for sale with the information tailored specifically to users and not real estate agents.

Determining factors include the number of occurrences of aggravated assault, robbery, burglary, theft/larceny, motor vehicle theft, forcible rape, and murder Safety rankings are then weighted based on the probability of each incident happening to each person. Violent crimes are given more weight in the ranking system and have a more significant effect on the safety rating than non-violent crimes to achieve the most accurate ranking.
