ALBUQUERQUE HAS BEEN DILIGENTLY WORKING ON ITS CRIME RATE … BUT THAT HASN’T HELPED THE CITY MUCH IN ONE SURVEY. WALLET-HUB-DOT-COM HAS RATES CITIES ACROSS THE U-S FOR HOW SAFE THEY ARE. WALLET HUB ANALYST JILL GONZALEZ TELLS US THEY CONSIDERED HOME AND COMMUNITY SAFETY WHICH INCLUDES A RANGE OF CRIMES, NATURAL DISASTER RISKS, FORECLOSURE AND JOBLESS RATES, AND FINANCIAL SAFETY.
THE CATEGORY THAT HURT ALBUQUERQUE’S RANKING WAS SAFETY … BOTH COMMUNITY AND HOME SAFETY. BUT THE CITY DID WELL, THOUGH, IN THE NATURAL DISASTER CATEGORY AS JUST WILDFIRES ARE CONSIDERED THE MAJOR RISK HERE.
