- A new 100-city ranking by BestLife shows the most dangerous and least dangerous cities in the United States.
- Data used to rank each city includes COVID deaths, violent crime, and natural disaster risk scores.
- The top of the rankings might surprise you.
Modern civilization is great and everything, but it's not without its obvious flaws. Living in a big, booming city can bring a lot of advantages when it comes to things like finding a job (most of the time, anyway), or the quality of medical care. Unfortunately, danger seems to pop up wherever humans are gathered in large numbers, and that makes many big cities some of the most dangerous places to live.
BestLife came up with a metric to rank the 100 most populous cities in the United States based on how dangerous it is to live in each one. Using data like the number of pedestrians killed in traffic accidents, natural disaster index scores, deaths from coronavirus and violent crime, and the likelihood of a resident dying before the age of 75, the site generated a "Danger Index Score" for each big city. Can you guess the most dangerous city?
