The verdict
Village of Pinecrest earns an A safety grade: violent crime runs 73% below the U.S. average, placing it safer than most U.S. cities.
Based on 17 reported violent incidents in a population of 17,963. At this volume, one additional or one fewer report can shift the rate and letter grade noticeably; small-city crime counts are inherently more volatile year to year than large-city counts, so treat this grade as a data point, not a precise ranking.
Small-count caution
Village of Pinecrest reported 17 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 17,963. At this volume one additional or one fewer report moves the per-100,000 rate noticeably, so the figure is better read as a data point than as a precise measurement, and year-to-year swings here are expected.
Comparable rate records
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Village of Pinecrest's 94.6 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are North Port (93.7), Sweetwater (101.3), Miami Lakes (101.6), North Palm Beach (84.1). These are same-year agency submissions that pass the same completeness screen, not a claim that the cities have identical conditions. They make the cohort position above checkable against named records instead of a generic state average.
Position in the state cohort
At 94.6 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Village of Pinecrest ranks 98 of 126 — above 28 of the 125 other Florida cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -53.7% against the cohort median of 204.3. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 5.1% of the 331 Part I offenses reported in Village of Pinecrest for 2024, against a median of 13.5% across comparable Florida cities — a gap of 8.4 points. Offense mix is shaped by which agencies report and how incidents are classified as well as by the underlying offenses, so it describes the reported record rather than a settled difference in conditions.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft is 89.5% of reported property offenses in Village of Pinecrest, against a cohort median of 81.5%. The remainder is burglary (30) and motor vehicle theft (3). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 88.3 per 100,000 in 2020 to 94.6 in 2024 (+7.2%). The highest observed value was 94.6 in 2024 and the lowest 0.0 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property counts dominate Village of Pinecrest's FBI UCR Table 8 municipal row. Per-100,000 rates use the reporting-year population on that row; cities that fail the completeness test stay out of rate rankings. A citywide figure rarely describes any single neighbourhood inside the municipal boundary.
Based on 17 reported violent incidents in a population of 17,963. At this volume, one additional or one fewer report can shift the rate and letter grade noticeably; small-city crime counts are inherently more volatile year to year than large-city counts, so treat this grade as a data point, not a precise ranking.
Mid-size municipal totals above are reported offenses, not safety advice for any single block. Reporting completeness still varies by year and agency.
