Safewise uses the FBI Uniform Crime report. Wrangell had the lowest overall violent crimes, but property crimes increased slightly dropping us to the number 4 spot this year. The Safewise examined  the number of Violent Crimes, consisting of aggravated assault, robbery, murder, and forcible rape, as well as Property Crimes, consisting of burglary, motor vehicle theft, arson, and larceny-theft. From there, the chance of these crimes happening out of 1,000 people was calculated to help level the playing field.
