SafeWise is an online resource dedicated to safety and home security, with safety statistics on towns and cities around the country. This August, the site released a list ranking the fifty safest cities in the country to raise a child — and Woodbridge, NJ ranked #23 nationwide.

The site looked at prevalence of crime as one of the metrics for determining the rankings, but it didn’t stop there. Recognizing that safety is about more than just crime, the study also looked at high school graduation rates, which indicate how effectively cities can help families and children thrive. Woodbridge has a graduation rate of 90.4% and a violent crime rate of only 1.02% — one of the lowest in the country. And with its great location, good schools and focus on sustainability, Woodbridge isn’t just one of the safest places to raise kids — it’s also one of the most convenient, supportive and beautiful.
