11 Safest Places to Live in the U.S.

3) Honolulu, Hawaii

Tropical island life combines with one of the safest places in the U.S. to live. What’s not to love about Honolulu? This city is a surfer’s haven, diver’s paradise, and sun worshiper’s dream. The climate and location makes Honolulu an irresistible location. Factor in the low violent crime rate and you’ve got yourself a perfect paradise. Honolulu’s small area and year-round warm weather prompts many people to walk, or ride their bikes to work. This cuts down on the dangers people face on the road and puts Honolulu near the bottom of the list of car fatalities. Hawaii is one of the strictest states in terms of its gun control laws. Remember: Honolulu is a city of 350,000, so take the normal precautions you would in any other large city. Property crimes have decreased in the last ten years, but still hover near the national average.
