September 24, 201511 yr I have never once thought of Highland Heights as a college town. Good to see them getting some nice press though.
September 24, 201511 yr I consider Highland Heights a lot of things....college town is most certainly not one of them. :lol2: Wonder if this was done before or after the gun incident last month?
September 24, 201511 yr I can't access as I am not a member of Cincinnati.com but I would imagine incidents on the campus don't fall into the rating.

Story below: Highland Heights, home to Northern Kentucky University, was ranked as the seventh safest college town in America, according to Safewise. The Utah-based security and crime prevention firm used FBI crime statistics as well as research about crime prevention efforts to compile its rankings, according to a press release. Safewise praised efforts by the Highland Heights Police Department to educate and inform the community. It also praised the university’s police department for its outreach to the campus community. “The university also makes a concerted effort to reach out to its community members,” the firm wrote in its analysis. “The university police’s Community Relations Team, for example, involves students, faculty and staff by conducting safety workshops and presentations, and integrating citizens into its planning and implementation processes.” In 2014, Safewise also named Highland Heights the 11th safest city in Kentucky for its low rates of violent and property crimes.
