If You Live In Bryan, You Are Probably Pretty Safe

If you live in Bryan, you can rest easy, and you should feel pretty safe. That’s because, accord­ing to an online report, Bryan is the safest city in the entire state of Ohio. The Bryan Times reports that Safe­Wise, a home secu­rity sys­tems com­pany based in Utah, says Bryan had only one reported vio­lent crime and no mur­ders or aggra­vated assaults in all of 2013, mak­ing Bryan what the report called, the safest city in Ohio with a per­fect com­bi­na­tion of old-world charm and mod­ern progress. The sur­vey, accord­ing to the paper, rated cities with pop­u­la­tions above 8,000 based on the most recent FBI Crime Report Sta­tis­tics from 2013, includ­ing prop­erty crime and vio­lent crime, to deter­mined the chance of those type of crimes hap­pen­ing per 1,000 res­i­dents. Just for the record though, Bryan is yet unranked in the rat­ings for 2014 so far.
