How Safe is Your State?

There's a new study out that ranks the States from safest to least safe...New Hampshire is on top (safest), Nevada on the bottom (least safe). And Alabama drops two spots from last year's report for a ranking of 38th. You can read the entire list and order the book in various forms at the CQ Press website. Alabama fares better than all of our surrounding South-Eastern neighbors except Mississippi. And Georgia dropped the most since the previous report...seven positions for a ranking of 39th.
