Crime & Safety in Grapevine
Grapevine's crime profile shows a genuine, sourced split by category: violent crime runs notably below the national average, while property crime runs above it -- both are disclosed here rather than picking the more flattering figure. CrimeGrade.org-derived data cites Grapevine's violent crime rate at roughly 1.44 per 1,000 residents versus a 13.32 national figure (about 50% below the national average by one specific comparison), while property crime runs higher, cited around 29.77-34 per 1,000 versus roughly 20 nationally.

Learn moreViolent Crime: Meaningfully Below the National Average
CrimeGrade.org-derived aggregation cites Grapevine's violent crime rate at about 1.44 per 1,000 residents against a 13.32 national figure, and a separate figure describes 91 violent crimes in a recent year (about 178 per 100,000 residents), roughly 50% below the national average, per sources reviewed August 2026. This is a real, consistently-sourced pattern across the aggregators checked, not a single outlier figure.
Property Crime: Above the National Average
The same sources cite property crime running higher than the national baseline -- roughly 29.77 per 1,000 residents against a national figure of about 20.05 by one comparison, and separately, 1,053 property crimes in a recent year (about 2,065 per 100,000 residents), cited as roughly 17.4% above the national average. This is the honest counterweight to the violent-crime figure above; property crime (theft, burglary, vehicle break-ins) tends to run higher in cities with significant visitor and commuter traffic, consistent with Grapevine's tourism- and convention-driven economy and its position along major DFW highway corridors.
Overall Combined Index
A combined (violent-plus-property) crime rate is cited around 31.2-41.28 per 1,000 residents depending on the specific aggregator and year, against national baselines cited between roughly 33-35 -- landing close to, and by some measures modestly below, the national average overall once both categories are blended. As with any citywide figure, this blends different areas of the city; this page does not name specific neighborhoods as higher- or lower-crime, consistent with this build's sourcing rules. Anyone evaluating a specific address should consult a block-level tool (CrimeGrade.org, NeighborhoodScout) directly.
