What do people use to find crime rate in each city and suburb??

[Steve Romano]

I found a couple deals in a town not too far from me. I've driven through it and a lot of kids are outside playing and riding bikes it seems like a great place for families to live which is why I want to buy in this area. This made me think. What about towns I'm not sure of or that are not in my back yard? How can I find the crime rates. I just want to find reliable sites and sources to point me in a good direction as I am still new to all of this. Can't hurt to reach out to BP members for help thanks!
