What makes a city safe? According to sites like Travel Safe and Niche.com, it’s things like having a crime rate 80% lower than the national average. For the community, it’s things like having a small-town feel, family-friendly special events, a pedestrian-friendly downtown, available support services, and clean outdoor spaces. The quality of life in Los Alamos County is outstanding and being safe is a big part of that. Help us celebrate just a few of the 2022 accolades Los Alamos has received:
