San Bernardino is the third most unsafe city in the nation, out of 180. Oakland is number 8 and Los Angeles is number 11. I was shocked to see San Fran as the 46 most SAFE city. Guess they do nto count all the smash and grabs, assaults and other crimes, since the police will not arrest for them, it is no longer a reportable crime.
“California cities rounded out the bottom of the charts when it came to measuring how many law enforcement employees worked in each city per capita. Fontana, Modesto, Fremont, Irvine and Chula Vista were ranked 172 through 176 for number of law enforcement officers. This ranking is surprising when considering that the state of California employs more law enforcement officers than most other states in the nation, according to data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation .”
With police leaving at a high rate and replacements being made ata low rate expect two things. One, more crime. Two, more people either leaving or buying guns. California is going to compete against Portland and Seattle for the title of “King of the Wild West”.

Another city in the South Bay also made the list, but for good reason. Fremont, California was listed as the 17th most safe city in the study with a safety score of 79.98. Fremont ranks number 10 for home and community safety and number five for financial safety.
