Cranberry’s commitment to keeping the community safe is getting national attention.
MoneyGeek recently named Cranberry Township the safest small town in Pennsylvania and the ninth safest in the country.
The ranking is based on crime statistics and the cost of those crimes in communities with a population between 30,000 and 100,000 residents. The rankings were based on 2022 crime statistics reported to the FBI.
