The annual list of safest and most dangerous cities came out today. Sorry to say, most places I've lived rank at the bottom!
However, I must give kudos to Amherst, NY, which ranked #3 safest and safest city with a population between 100,000 and 500,000. Amherst is a suburb of Buffalo where a certain Osgood family grew up. It's a pretty little town.
On the other hand, Dayton was pegged at the 17th most dangerous city in the country, and Columbus is the 7th most dangerous city over 500,000. This is not very good company.
As usual, Chicago is not included in the survey. They have a different crime reporting system, so the fine folks who compile the survey can't use our data. It's a good thing, too, because I'm sure Chicago would have a high ranking on these lists.
