Antioch, CA Crime Map: Neighborhood Safety Grades and Local Data

How Safe Is Antioch Overall?

Antioch is a city of 313,532 residents earning an overall crime grade of C — but that city-wide number tells only part of the story. When you break the data down by neighborhood, 75% of analyzed areas earn a safe rating of B or better, and half of all neighborhoods score an A grade. That gap between the city-wide C and the neighborhood-level picture reflects how concentrated safety disparities can be in a city spanning 1,475 residents per square mile, with a median household income of $80,234 and a poverty rate of 12.7%.

Safest Neighborhoods in Antioch

Dallas Ranch stands out as the safest neighborhood in Antioch, earning an A+ grade with a median household income of $130,201 — the highest of any analyzed area. Its small population of 827 residents correlates with tight-knit community oversight and lower incident rates. Gentrytown follows closely with an A- grade; home to 3,467 residents and a median income of $62,883, it represents the largest community in this analysis while still maintaining strong safety metrics. Lake Alhambra, with 953 residents and a median income of $57,934, earns a B- — solidly in the safe range despite sitting closer to the city's more active corridors.

Where Crime Rates Are Higher

Downtown Antioch is the only neighborhood in this analysis to score below a B, landing at a C grade. With a median household income of $42,284 — roughly $38,000 below Dallas Ranch — and a population of 1,407, it reflects the economic pressures that often correlate with elevated crime rates. Notably, no neighborhood in Antioch's analyzed data earned a D or F, which signals that even the city's most challenged area remains within a manageable range rather than representing a severe safety concern.

Grade Distribution Across Antioch Neighborhoods

Of the four neighborhoods analyzed, 50% earned an A grade, 25% earned a B, and 25% earned a C. Zero neighborhoods fell into the D or F categories. That distribution means the vast majority of Antioch's studied residential areas trend toward safety, even as the overall city grade reflects broader municipal-level crime patterns that extend beyond individual neighborhood boundaries. The city-wide safety rating of B reinforces this — the neighborhood-level data is more optimistic than the aggregate C grade might initially suggest.

Property Crime vs. Violent Crime in Antioch

In cities with Antioch's demographic and economic profile — an unemployment rate of 8.5%, a median rent of $1,911, and a median home value of $425,580 — property crime typically accounts for the larger share of reported incidents. Theft, vehicle break-ins, and burglary tend to cluster around commercial corridors and transit-adjacent areas like Downtown Antioch. Violent crime, while present, is generally more localized and less frequent across the city's residential neighborhoods. Understanding which type of crime dominates in a given area is essential context that raw city-wide grades alone cannot provide.

How the Crime Map Helps Antioch Residents Decide

For home buyers weighing a $425,580 median purchase price, knowing that Dallas Ranch earns an A+ while Downtown Antioch earns a C can directly influence where to focus a property search. Renters facing a $1,911 median rent can use neighborhood-level grades to assess whether a lower-priced unit in a C-rated area represents a worthwhile trade-off. Commuters traveling through Antioch's East Bay corridors can identify which routes pass through higher-graded neighborhoods and plan accordingly. The interactive crime map on this page makes those comparisons immediate and specific — no generalized city-wide statistics required.
