The study looked at 31 popular spring break destinations in the U.S. and graded them based on population, homicides, DUI incidents, pedestrian incidents, cyclist incidents, hit-and-run incidents, alcohol deaths and drowning deaths per 100,000 people. Each city was assessed a 0-100 grade for each metric, with “0” being the lowest risk and “100” being the highest risk.
