Given the title of my Blog âChief Technology Officerâs Blogâ â I thought it would be a good idea to briefly explore itâs namesake. The role of the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) is one of the least defined and understood corporate executive roles (such as CEO, COO, CFO, CIO, etc).
Crime rates vary among U.S. states. In 2011, the state with the lowest violent crime rate was Maine, with a rate of 123.2 per 100,000 residents, while the state with the highest violent crime rate was Tennessee, with a rate of 608.2 per 100,000.
Violent Crime. Virginia's violent crime rate was 186 per 100,000 people in 2015, the same rate as the year before, and again ranking 3rd lowest in the nation. Like property crime, the violent crime rate in Virginia has been steadily decreasing since at least 2006, when it was 282. However, for the first time in over a decade, many states saw their violent crime rates increase, including national leader Vermont (116 violent crimes per 100,000 people).
