As a first order approximation, it is sufficient that if a city fails
the brown paper bag test, then it a dangerous place to live.

Yup. Visiting each city’s wikipedia page, scrolling down to ‘demographics’ and noting any common ‘trends’ is instructive. Left as an exercise for the reader.

I’m not surprised DC has one of the biggest crime rates.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the brown paper bag test?

Wow! If Burlington and South Burlington, VT are at the top of the safest list, I don't want to set foot in any of the other cities.

Burlington has become a leftist crime ridden cesspool.

I grew up near there and no way I go to Burlington now.

That joint is on a few lists.

Those wouldn’t be natural I guess... but when the balloon goes up I don’t wanna be there.

High winds. Hail storms.

The same with Portland, Maine.

Illegal haven and a crummy place.

Portland Maine and Burlington vt hsve turned into sh@@holes in a matter of months.

Information is out of date.

Essentially the top of the list are the white majority cities we are no longer permitted to have by the leftists who run the country.

CS has fire issues, hail, blizzards and tornados. The study did not cover the rough storms that can happen. CS is in the top three counties for lightning strikes in the US. Though not on the top for car accidents now a couple of the roads were national leaders for accidents in the past, Nevada and Academy.

Any city missing The Bloods and Crips is going to be safe.

It also helps to NOT be near the Mexican border.

The Whiter and conservative the neighborhood, the safer it is. You didn’t need a “study” for this.
