FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) A company named Insurance Providers released its findings on the ‘10 Safest Cities in the United States’ and Fort Wayne, Indiana came in as the 5th safest city in the nation.

Insurance Providers compiled its report by collecting information on three safety factors; they included: crime rate, likelihood of natural disaster, and driving safety.

Insurance Providers then weighed each type of accident according to likelihood to get their results.

#10 Anaheim, California
#9 Aurora, Colorado
#8 El Paso, Texas
#7 Phoenix, Arizona
#6 Henderson, Nevada
#5 Fort Wayne, Indiana – Fort Wayne residents go nearly twelve years without an accident, which, combined with their low crime rate, makes up for their mediocre 25 in natural disaster safety. Go Hoosiers!
#4 St. Paul, Minnesota
#3 Tucson, Arizona
#2 Colorado Springs, Colorado
#1 Mesa, Arizona
