Is Hopkins safe?
Hopkins sits at the safer end of Cleveland by reported crime. Its SafeRoute safety index is 82 out of 100 — 32 points above the citywide median of 50, ranking 1st of 34 Cleveland neighborhoods — based on 219 incidents reported to the Cleveland Division of Police within 1 km of the neighborhood center over the 8 months to August 2026. Most of this area is airport or industrial land rather than housing, so the count reflects how few people live here rather than how safe the streets are.

How is the Hopkins safety index calculated?
SafeRoute weights each incident reported to the Cleveland Division of Police by severity (violence weighs more than shoplifting), sums the last available period within 1 km of the neighborhood center, and normalizes against citywide crime rates onto a 0–100 scale — higher is safer. It describes reported crime only; it is not a guarantee of safety. The scale is calibrated within Cleveland, so scores compare neighborhoods to each other and cannot be read against another city's.
