Fullerton Ranked Among America’s Safest Suburbs!
Fullerton Ranked Among America’s Safest Suburbs in 2025
In a recent national study conducted by SmartAsset, Fullerton has earned a spot on the list of America’s Safest Suburbs, coming in at #49 out of 360 communities surveyed across the U.S.
The study evaluated suburbs located within a 15 to 45-minute drive of the country’s 100 largest cities. Communities were scored across five key safety metrics:
While many families consider housing costs when deciding where to live, safety is an equally critical factor, especially for those raising children. In fact, many households are willing to pay more to live in neighborhoods where they feel secure and supported.
It's worth noting that safety trends fluctuate due to shifts in the economy, local legislation, and other social factors. The report also highlighted that while violent crime saw a slight increase year-over-year, property crime declined in many suburbs, showing mixed trends in safety indicators.
Fullerton’s inclusion in the top 50 reinforces what many already know: it’s a city that balances vibrant community life with a strong commitment to public safety and family-friendly living.
