Is Stadium District safe?

Stadium District sits at the safer end of Philadelphia by reported crime. Its SafeRoute safety index is 84 out of 100 — 30 points above the citywide median of 54, ranking 22nd of 151 Philadelphia neighborhoods — based on 345 incidents reported to the Philadelphia Police within 1 km of the neighborhood center over the 10 months to November 2026. Most of this area is industrial, institutional, stadium and commercial land rather than housing, so a low count reflects how few people live here rather than how safe the streets are.

How is the Stadium District safety index calculated?

SafeRoute weights each incident reported to the Philadelphia Police Department 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 Philadelphia, so scores compare neighborhoods to each other and cannot be read against another city's.
