Colgate: All safe and secure

Looks like Hamilton is nestled between two of the top 20 most secure places to live in the U.S. based on crime statistics, extreme weather, risk of natural disaters and job loss numbers. The Post Standard reports that The Farmers Insurance Group of Companies ranks Syracuse 11th in the category of metro areas with more than 500,000 residents. Utica/Rome was 19th for locations the next size down, 150,000 to 500,000 residents.

It is nice to know that 100 plus inches of snow each year isn't considered "extreme weather"!
