  With the localization of fast radio bursts (FRBs) to galaxies similar to the
Milky Way and the detection of a bright radio burst from SGR J1935+2154 with
energy comparable to extragalactic radio bursts, a magnetar origin for FRBs is
evident. By studying the environments of FRBs, evidence for magnetar formation
mechanisms not observed in the Milky Way may become apparent. In this paper, we
use a sample of FRB host galaxies and a complete sample of core-collapse
supernova (CCSN) hosts to determine whether FRB progenitors are consistent with
a population of magnetars born in CCSNe. We also compare the FRB hosts to the
hosts of hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I) and long gamma-ray
bursts (LGRBs) to determine whether the population of FRB hosts is compatible
with a population of transients that may be connected to millisecond magnetars.
After using a novel approach to scale the stellar masses and star-formation
rates of each host galaxy to be statistically representative of $z=0$ galaxies,
we find that the CCSN hosts and FRBs are consistent with arising from the same
distribution. Furthermore, the FRB host distribution is inconsistent with the
distribution of SLSNe-I and LGRB hosts. With the current sample of FRB host
galaxies, our analysis shows that FRBs are consistent with a population of
magnetars born through the collapse of giant, highly magnetic stars.
