According to a list compiled by SafeWise, the safest place to live in Minnesota is Montevideo. 4,995 people live in this safe little town.

Here is what SafeWise had to say about compiling the data to discover the safest place to live in each state:

"The safest cities rankings are intended to highlight cities with low crime rates and ignite conversation and action around how to make all cities and communities safer. For the purposes of city ranking reports, the terms “dangerous” and “safest” refer explicitly to crime rates as calculated from FBI crime data—no other characterization of any community is implied or intended. Overall, across the US, crime rates were fairly steady year over year. The violent crime rate held at 4.0 incidents per 1,000 people and property crime dipped from 19.6 incidents per 1,000 to 19.3. We calculated per capita crime rates for 41 states that submitted complete data to the FBI."
