Check a specific Dallas address

Radius:

Dallas's police agency publishes its incident reports through an open data feed. We re-publish that data here with attribution and link back to the source. The figures below describe the rolling activity snapshot for Dallas as currently held in our database.

The active snapshot for Dallas contains 8,996 reported incidents, 889 of which were classified by the source agency as severe (10% — typically violent, weapons or shooting reports). Reports peak around 20:00 local time. Reports filed overnight (22:00–05:59) make up 0% of the snapshot.

The address lookup above computes the great-circle distance from your selected point to every incident on record and counts the ones inside the radius you choose. The 0–100 indicator is a heuristic that weights severe categories more heavily and uses a logarithmic scale, so a handful of routine calls will not change the result much. It is intended as an at-a-glance descriptor of recent reported activity, nothing more.

Important context: calls-for-service include reports that were later determined to be unfounded, duplicates, or non-criminal in nature. Some agencies blur exact addresses to the block. Reporting practices, definitions and lag vary substantially between agencies, so cross-jurisdiction comparisons should be made with care. The numbers and indicator here describe what was reported to law enforcement — they are not a measure of crime that actually occurred, court outcomes, conviction rates, or the quality, value or desirability of any neighborhood, property, person or business. Nothing on this page is a substitute for visiting in person, speaking with neighbors or consulting a qualified professional for any decision of consequence.

Frequently asked questions

How is the Dallas safety score calculated?
We count police incidents within the radius you pick, weighted by severity. The 0–100 score uses a logarithmic curve over the density of severe incidents in the last 30 days. It's heuristic — calibrated so quiet suburbs land in the A range, busy urban districts land in the C range, and very high-crime areas drop into D/F.
Where does the Dallas data come from?
Open public-safety feeds published by the agencies that cover Dallas, Dallas County, Texas. We never scrape, never use private brokers, and always link back to the source. See the sources page for the full list, refresh cadence and license per agency.
Is the safety check free?
Yes. There's no signup, no API key requirement and no Google involvement — address autofill is powered by Photon (OpenStreetMap). Nothing about the address you search is shared with a third party or stored on our side.
What does "severe" mean here?
We flag any incident whose offense type matches violent, weapons, shooting, stabbing, homicide or armed-robbery patterns as severe. Dallas currently has 889 severe incidents on file out of 8,996 total in the active snapshot.
Why might my address show "not covered"?
We don't have an open feed for every US city yet. If your address falls outside the bounding box of any source we currently track, we'll say so explicitly rather than fake a number. We're adding cities continuously.
Can I export Dallas crime data?
Yes — go to the city's source agency (linked on the sources page). We publish a presentation layer; the underlying open-data portal is the canonical export.
