Ridgefield, Connecticut, home to our U.S. headquarters, is ranked #1 safest place to live

Have you been to Ridgefield, CT? It’s one of the United States oldest towns with a thriving art scene and natural beauty thanks to New England’s Berkshire Mountains. Ridgefield is often named highest for quality of life in the state by Connecticut Magazine. More recently, this historic town was ranked the top ‘safest place’ in the country for its low crime rate according to FBI data and the Census Bureau.
