Neighborhood

Miami Beach is a separate barrier-island city from the City of Miami, connected by causeways -- important context since city-level crime figures for "Miami" (the mainland city) don't automatically apply to Miami Beach, a distinct municipality with its own police department.

Crime & safety

We sourced crime data for the City of Miami (mainland) rather than Miami Beach specifically, and found notably mixed signals even for that city alone: one source describes Miami's violent crime as down sharply in early 2026 (homicides down 50% year-over-year in one report) and an overall crime rate 4% below the national average; another gives Miami a bottom-4-percentile safety score statewide; a third describes violent crime as 25% above the national average. Sources agree crime is heavily neighborhood-dependent, with roughly 95% of individually graded Miami neighborhoods scoring a B or better.

Our calculated rating

We don't publish a single proprietary score, and for this school we're showing no rating: no academic data is verified, and the only crime data sourced is for a different, adjacent municipality rather than this school's actual city. See our ratings methodology.
