A real, below-national crime rate

Especially low violent crime

An honest, disclosed context

Eagan runs safer than approximately 51% of U.S. cities -- an above-average but not extreme differentiator, and a separate source cites 1-in-54 overall victimization odds; this record discloses both framings rather than only the more flattering one.
