Idaho is a safe place to live

Every year, a group called the CQ Press releases something called the Crime Rankings Index. Basically, they look at reported crime rates in six categories: murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, and motor vehicle theft. Then they rank them by state.

--The five states with the most crime are:

#1.) Nevada. This is their seventh straight year at the top of the list.
#2.) New Mexico
#3.) Louisiana
#4.) South Carolina
#5.) Tennessee

--And the five states with the least crime are:

#1.) New Hampshire
#2.) Vermont
#3.) North Dakota
#4.) Maine
#5.) Idaho

--Overall, the worst state for ASSAULT is . . . South Carolina.
--The worst state for RAPE is . . . Alaska.
--And the worst state for MURDER is . . . Louisiana.
