Agoura Hills Named 14th Safest City in California

By Craig Clough

A business consortium of home security providers has named Agoura Hills as the 14th Safest City in California in which to live.

SafeWise Security Systems named Agoura Hills among the safest cities, stating:
"From pee-wee yoga, fencing, Kindermusic, and senior socials, Agoura Hills makes every effort to offer its citizens a wide variety of affordable programs. That could be one reason why its crime rate is impressively low. The FBI’s Crime Report states that authorities were made aware of just three robberies in 2011. Agoura Hills is surrounded by no less than five colleges and universities and also offers a unique program that honors its citizens who serve in the armed forces."

Nearby Calabasas finished in 13th place and Moorpark took 7th place.

The study was made from the company's data and research since 2011, as well as the most recent FBI Crime statistics in the U.S.
