Ballwin Named Missouri's Safest City, Again

Ballwin has been ranked the #1 safest city in Missouri for 2026, continuing a multi-year streak recognized by national safety research organizations.

Ballwin has once again earned the top spot as Missouri's safest city, according to the latest rankings. The recognition reflects the Ballwin Police Department's community-oriented approach and consistently low crime rates across all categories.

Chief John Bergfeld credited the department's proactive patrol strategies, neighborhood watch partnerships, and the strong relationship between officers and residents. 'This ranking belongs to the whole community,' Bergfeld said.

Ballwin has been repeatedly recognized among the safest and best places to live in the Midwest by multiple national publications.
