Is Indianapolis safe?
Indianapolis scores F (High Risk) — reported crime runs above the US average. It varies dramatically by neighborhood, so use the interactive map to see the safe and higher-risk pockets.
Indianapolis's reported crime works out to roughly 5,500 total offenses per 100,000 residents per year — about 1,100 violent and 4,400 property. Crime is never uniform across a city, though: two neighborhoods a mile apart can have very different safety profiles. The interactive Indianapolis crime map shades every area so you can see exactly where the safer and higher-risk pockets are before you rent, buy, or visit.
How the Indianapolis safety grade works
Grades run A+ (safest) to F, based on reported violent- and property-crime rates versus other US cities, using verified public data. This is an editorial safety grade for general information — not a prediction, and never a substitute for checking a specific address on the map.
