DATA THROUGH AUGUST 2026
The 0–100 scale is calibrated to Los Angeles — a typical Los Angeles neighborhood sits near 51. It ranks Eagle Rock against other neighborhoods here, and cannot be read against a score in another city.
Most of what's reported here is property-related — other theft alone is 27% of reports — rather than violence against strangers, though the full mix below is worth a look.
Reported incidents here skew to daytime and evening hours — only about 14% of severity-weighted reports fall overnight (midnight–6 a.m.).

How is the Eagle Rock safety index calculated?
SafeRoute weights each incident reported to the LAPD 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 Los Angeles, so scores compare neighborhoods to each other and cannot be read against another city's.
