AdvisorSmith Finds the Safest Cities in Illinois

NEW YORK - Oct. 27, 2020 - PRLog -- AdvisorSmith, a leading resource for small business research, published its newest analysis that discovered the safest small, midsize, and large cities in Illinois.

In the study, 547 cities were compared and segmented by population size to find the safest small, midsize, and large cities in the state. Cities with population sizes with up to 10,000 residents were compared and labeled small cities. Midsize cities with 10,000 to 100,000 residents, and large cities with over 100,000 residents were also compared.

Each city was given a crime score that was determined using the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting Data Set. The crime score weighted violent and property crimes based upon the severity of the crime.

"We created this study so that residents, potential residents, and small business owners can be informed about the safest places to live and do business in the state of Illinois," said Adrian Mak, CEO, AdvisorSmith.

The study determined that the safest small, midsize, and large cities in Illinois were Inverness, Campton Hills, and Palatine.
