Is Industrial District safe?
Industrial District sits at the safer end of Seattle by reported crime. Its SafeRoute safety index is 72 out of 100 — 19 points above the citywide median of 53, ranking 20th of 94 Seattle neighborhoods — based on 191 incidents reported to the SPD within 1 km of the neighborhood center over the 10 months to November 2026. Almost all of this area is industrial port land rather than homes, so a low count reflects how few people are here rather than how safe the streets are.

How is the Industrial District safety index calculated?
SafeRoute weights each incident reported to the Seattle 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 Seattle, so scores compare neighborhoods to each other and cannot be read against another city's.
