Is Saint Helena safe to walk?
This page covers traffic crashes, not crime. We don't rate cities as safe or unsafe: crash counts can't say how risky a street is, and busy streets have more crashes partly because more people use them.

The most were at Main St & Hunt Ave (6). 50% involved a driver turning, 44% turning left. 69% of the people hit were in a crosswalk at an intersection.
