The typical city scores 50 for staying safe; Hilton Head Island sits right at the median.

How safety is measured

Reported violent and property crime rates.

The safety score is the flip side of our crime measure — 100 minus the raw crime score — so a city with less of it scores higher.

Data sources: FBI Crime Data Explorer and city open-data crime portals.
