What comes to mind when you see articles like “Safest Cities in America” or “10 Most Dangerous Cities in the U.S?” Do you question their accuracy?
Recently, SafeWise released its “The 50 Safest College Towns in America for 2022” report. It lists the safest and most dangerous college towns in America. Springfield, Missouri, was ranked as the no. 4 most dangerous college towns in 2022.
Missouri State University data analytics expert Dr. Todd Daniel reviewed the report. An instructor in the department of information technology and cybersecurity at MSU, Daniel explains why the report is problematic and how we can look at crime data more critically.
