Chief Robert Irving was informed today that the town of Wayland has been named the sixth safest town in the United States by Safewise.
Safewise is a community-focused security organization committed to increasing safety education, awareness, and preparedness. Wayland’s ranking was the highest for any Massachusetts town.
Chief Irving states, “This ranking shows the hard work and dedication of all public safety personnel in Wayland and the tremendous partnership between the community and the police officers, firefighters and dispatchers that serve and protect the town on a daily basis.”

The SafeWise Report Announces the 100 Safest Cities in America
The SafeWise Report released its “100 Safest Cities in America” report this week. To compile this report, SafeWise used the most recent FBI crime data from 2013 to analyze and rank these cities, which all have a minimum population of 10,000 people.
“Widening the safest cities concept from a state-by-state analysis to include all of America seemed like the next logical step at SafeWise,” SafeWise security analyst Mike Strayer said. “That said, I think it’s safe to say we didn’t expect to see so many innovative, community-safety programs thriving all around the U.S. independently of one another.”
