The Villages rate: 13.8
National property crime rate: 38.1
Washington DC rate: 57.8
The Villages rate: 22.6
BTW, housing cost index on a national average of 100:
Washington: 274
TV: 134
Also, Ithaca NY was listed as the safest city under 150,000 in the country---with a violent crime rate of 18 and property crime rate of 51.2. I don't think TV was listed since it is not a "city", but CDDs spread over 3 counties.
Anyone feel "unsafe" now????

Thank you for posting these statistics.
No question TV is about as safe as it gets in the country which may largely be due to its median age of what, about 70?
