I know Haskell and Rust have a reputation for this, any others?

Ada would probably be put in a similar box with those.

Right, but I'm curious to know among statically typed languages, which ones have more checks than others.

Still probably Ada. Compared to other statically typed languages, Ada is a "big" language. Things like Modula-2 or ML simply have far fewer things to check.

You should check ML programming languages family, like Ocaml.
