Where Are The Safest Places To Live In The United States?
Being in a safe community is one of the most important factors that buyers consider when purchasing a home, condo or any other type of real estate. So where are America’s most secure places to live? The Farmers Insurance Group of Companies has released its third annual ranking of top 20 ‘Most Secure U.S. Places to Live’.
Bert Sperling, a database expert with http://bestplaces.net, compiled the Farmers rankings based on data from 379 U.S. municipalities. Factors such as crime statistics, unemployment rates and risks of environmental hazards, terrorism threats, natural disasters and extreme weather conditions, were taken into consideration.
The communities were divided into three groups – large metropolitan areas (above 500,000 residents), mid-size cities (between 150,000 and 500,000 residents), and small towns (fewer than 150,000 residents).
According to the survey, the most secure community to live in the U.S. among large metropolitan areas are the adjacent communities of Boise City and Nampa (both in Idaho), which topped all large metro areas. Located among the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, the area has one of the lowest unemployment rates and enjoys a wonderful climate.
Among the Mid-size cities, those with a population between 150,000 and 500,000, the safest community to live is Las Cruces, New Mexico. Las Cruces was the first among mid-size cities in low unemployment rate and favorable climate categories.
St. George in Utah topped all small cities with populations of 150,000 or fewer in the survey. The city has 110,515 residents who enjoy a mild climate, clean air and low annual precipitation. It also has the lowest crime rates of all the 379 communities surveyed. St. George stands first in employment rate among the 138 small towns in the Farmers study.

On May 8, seven glider pilots got together to soar around northern Utah and southern Idaho. I made this video in my ASW20B sailplane starting 23 miles north of Logan and flying southbound on the ridge. It gives a good view of what flying the Logan ridge is all about. Fantastic location to soar! In August 2009 we are excited to have the first Region 9 sailplane race up here in Logan flying these spectacular mountains. More info visit phoebus.vassel.com

RESIDENTIAL AREAS ALONG MOMBASA ROAD
PART 1:NAIROBI WEST TO SYOKIMAU AREA
Mombasa road is among the most desired area by Nairobians as a residential area.
This is because it offers the widest choice in terms of budget and affordability and does not have the ?ancestral tribal land’ tag hence very suitable for a wide and cosmopolitan population.

Something I didn’t know–the root of the word lent comes from the Germanic and Dutch terms for spring.
The days are starting to get longer and I’m restless for this monochrome winter to be over.
