O'Fallon Named One of America's Safest Cities
The City of O'Fallon was named the 3rd safest city
in America according to CQ Press's annual report, entitled,
City Crime Rankings 2008-2009: Crime in Metropolitan
America.
The City Crime Rankings offer an
unbiased look at 385 cities with populations greater
than 75,000. 2008 is the first year that O'Fallon was eligible
for inclusion in the rankings.
"To be ranked on this distinguished list is a testament
to the dedicated men and women of our world class Police
Department, our City officials and our residents,"
said Robert Lowery, Jr., O'Fallon's City Administrator.
"Our City is blessed with beautiful neighborhoods,
affordable housing and good jobs. Plus, our residents
work closely with our Police Department, our schools
and each other to make sure that their neighborhoods
remain safe, wonderful places to live."
The crime rate rankings of the cities and metropolitan
areas are calculated using six crime categories: murder,
rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary and motor
vehicle theft. These categories have been used for determining
city crime rate ratings since 1999. The rankings include all
cities of at least 75,000 residents that reported crime
data to the FBI in the categories noted for calendar
year 2007. In the most recent survey, 356 metropolitan
areas and 397 cities were considered using statistics released
by the Uniform Crime 2 Reporting Program of
the FBI on September 15, 2008.
"This ranking continues the string of national accolades
that have been bestowed on our great City this
year," said Donna Morrow, Mayor of O'Fallon. "In the
past year, O'Fallon has been rated as one of ‘America's
Best Places to Live' by Money Magazine, as one of
‘America's best cities to relocate to' by RelocateAmerica.
com, and now O'Fallon is ranked as the third safest
city in the country. It's tremendous to know that the
nation is recognizing what our residents already know.
O'Fallon is an amazing place to live, work and raise a
family."
