DATA THROUGH SEPTEMBER 2026 · 11 MONTHS OF DATA
The 0–100 scale is calibrated to Dallas — a typical Dallas neighborhood sits near 55. It ranks Arcadia Park against other neighborhoods here, and cannot be read against a score in another city.
Most of what's reported here is property-related — other alone is 36% of reports — rather than violence against strangers, though the full mix below is worth a look.
Timing matters here: about 30% of severity-weighted incidents are reported overnight (midnight–6 a.m.), so route choice late at night matters more than the headline number suggests.

How is the Arcadia Park safety index calculated?
SafeRoute weights each incident reported to the Dallas Police Department by severity (violence weighs more than shoplifting), sums the last twelve months within 1 km of the neighborhood center, and normalizes against citywide 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 Dallas, so scores compare neighborhoods to each other and cannot be read against another city's.
