The 10 Safest Communities in Greater Boston

According to a new analysis of crime rate, Sudbury is the safest community in the Greater Boston Area. With a murder, robbery, and vehicle theft rate of zero (and a very low assault rate), Sudbury did best in all measures of the study, which analyzed data from the FBI and U.S. census. Below are the specific crime stats for Greater Boston’s 10 safest communities.

Two things we should note: first, all the below rates are per 100,000 residents; and second, the areas’ murder rates (not included) were 0 per 100,000 for all communities.
