SafeWise.com released a report detailing 2016's 20 safest cities in Arizona. The safety tip website compared the most recent FBI Crime Report statistics from 2014 with population data. Cities were eliminated if they had less than 2,000 residents. The primary factors in question were number of reported violent crimes (murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault) and property crimes (arson, burglary, motor vehicle theft and larceny-theft) in each city.
