Allstate Insurance Rates “Best Driving” Cities – Did Tri-Cities Make the List?
Some cities in the Pacific Northwest made Allstate's list of best or safest driving cities.
The insurance company just released it's 2013 results for the safest cities to operate a vehicle. Based upon their own claim data, national claim data, and figures from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Allstate compiled a list that shows the following criteria:
- Collision Likelihood compared to national average
- Average years between collisions.
According to Allstate, Spokane is one of the top ten safest. Other major Washington cities were reported as well:
City & Overall Ranking | Collision Likelihood Compared to National Average | Average Years Between Collisions |
45. Spokane, WA | 3.3% less likely | 10.3 |
82. Vancouver, WA | 4.9% more likely | 9.5 |
144. Tacoma, WA | 23.9% more likely | 8.1 |
160. Seattle, WA | 28.8% more likely | 7.8 |
Boise, Idaho came in at #2, while Eugene, Oregon was at #10. The worst city? Philadelphia, PA.
Where did Tri-Cities, and Yakima finish? After studying the report thoroughly, based upon the data available, we did not find our communities anywhere on the list. Hmmm.
