How is Jackson and BR ranked higher than the other cities except Detroit? Seems a little off.

Chattanooga?

That place feels incredibly safe

That is a mind blowing ranking for them

It uses "financial security" and "risk of natural disaster" as part of the metrics. That's why this list seems messed up

Man, I just have a hard time seeing Chattanooga being ranked that low. I've always heard that it was dangerous, but I just don't see it anymore.

The downtown is completely revitalized. It's clean, well-lit. You see more people kayaking and paddle boarding on the Tennessee river than you do questionable characters.

The "questionable characters" typically don't hang around water.

If risk of natural disaster is part of the criteria, then how does a place like Brownsville make the Top 10 safest cities?

I've lived there

And I agree it is very safe

149. Austin, TX - rankings suspect
