   We used data and science to identify the most dangerous cities in the   
   Beaver State for 2022.   
      
   No, it's not all peace, love, and harmony in The Beaver State. RoadSnacks   
   knows of 281 violent crimes and 2,968 property crimes that says so.   
      
   Do you think that you live in one of the most dangerous cities in Oregon?   
   Now, before you lock your doors and grab your taser, we suggest you take a   
   look at RoadSnacks' list of the most dangerous places in Oregon for 2022,   
   there might be some that surprise you.   
      
   How'd we do it? We consulted the numbers. In total, we analyzed 67 cities.   
   We looked at the FBI's latest crime report for violent crime and property   
   crime statistics for every place with over 5,000 residents. We discovered   
   that Oregon's violent and property crime numbers, while not the worst in   
   the country, could be better.   
      
   If you asked most Oregonians, they would say that their little corner of   
   this Pacific Northwest state is the best, but that's not the case for the   
   people who live in Oregon's most dangerous places. The residents in these   
   places are not only witnessing high crime, they are dealing with   
   unemployment, low wages, and lack of rehabilitation programs.   
      
   And while Oregon might not be one of the top ten most dangerous states in   
   the country, the state's most dangerous places do need some work. Maybe   
   more police? Security cameras? Drug programs? We're not entirely sure. One   
   thing that we are sure about, however, is that you should take a look   
   below at the list of Oregon's most dangerous places before you make any   
   life changing decisions.

   Roseburg   
   Eugene   
   Astoria   
   Salem   
   If you guessed that most of the state's problems are centralized around   
   most of Oregon's largest cities, Portland and Salem, you guessed right.   
   Oregon's biggest cities can't catch a break. Surprisingly, however, the   
   most dangerous place in Oregon doesn't even have 10,000 residents.   
      
   So, where is Oregon's most dangerous place? The most dangerous place in   
   Oregon would be, Ontario.   
      
   To see how your city faired, take a look at the list below; and if you   
   don't find what you're looking for there, head to the bottom.

   The 10 Most Dangerous Places To Live In Oregon For 2022   
   1. Ontario   
   Located along Snake River on the border of Idaho, Ontario ranks as the   
   most dangerous city in Oregon.   
      
   Ontario saw a increase in violent crime and a increase in property crime   
   for last couple of years, which explains why it moved several spots on the   
   list for 2022.   
      
   Ontario residents had a 1 in 152 chance of being the victim of a violent   
   crime and a 1 in 17 chance of having their stuff stolen or vandalized over   
   2020.   
      
   Included in those numbers is the fifth highest murder rate, 25th highest   
   rate of rape cases, and tenth highest rate of burglaries in Oregon.

   2. Warrenton   
   A coastal city located in the northwestern part of Oregon, Warrenton comes   
   in as the state's second least safe place.   
      
   Warrenton jumped up a few spots on this list from last year, and that's   
   mostly because of a recent rise in property crime. Warrenton had the   
   highest property crime rate in Oregon, with residents facing a 1 in 15   
   chance of having their stuff stolen or damaged over 2020.   
      
   This means you should probably always lock your car, even if you're just   
   parked next to your campsite at Fort Stevens State Park.   
      
   On the bright side, Warrenton's violent crime numbers fell slightly, so   
   there's hope for change here.
