List of top 100 safest cities in Massachusetts

As per a recent study conducted by Alarams.org we have listed below the top 10 safest cities in Massachusetts. These rankings are based on FBI Uniform Crime Report.

Wayland has topped the list yet again this year, followed by Norfolk, Norton, Sudbury, Franklin. Top five most dangerous cities this year are Holyoke, North Adams, West Springfield, Springfield, New Bedford where rates of violent crimes are close to or higher than 10 per thousand population. Boston ranked a dismal 157 in the safe cities list in Massachusetts with a score of 7.7 violent crimes per thousand population.

As taxi cab drivers we often feel unsafe when driving passengers to certain areas in Massachusetts. Sometimes taxi and car service companies in Boston charge extra fees to driving customers to possibly violent areas. In that case, we refer to such lists to determine the safety of a place and extra charges to be levied because of the safety concerns.
