Of the 8 covered cities nearest Henderson, all 8 have a higher violent crime rate. The closest is North Las Vegas, NV, 20 miles away.

About these categories

Homicide, robbery, burglary, theft and vehicle theft come from the same reports Henderson Police Department sends the FBI. Theft from vehicles is NIBRS codes 23F and 23G (items and parts taken from a vehicle) and theft is the rest of larceny. Robbery is part of violent crime and the others of property crime; assault and rape count in violent crime but are not listed separately, so the rows do not add up to the totals. Red means more than before, green means fewer. “Not yet” means the site does not have that month from a year earlier.

Against other places of 100,000+ residents: vehicle theft (88th highest rate of 155), robbery (104th highest rate of 152) and burglary (83rd highest rate of 168).

Common questions

answered with the data above
Is Henderson safe?

By reported violent crime, Henderson is well below the average of the 302 cities and county areas on this site: 206 violent crimes per 100,000 residents per year over the 12 months to July 2026, −12% versus the previous 12 months. Safety varies a lot by neighborhood, so the citywide figure is only a starting point.

Is there a crime map for Henderson?

This site does not have one for Henderson. The figures on this page come from the FBI, which receives city totals rather than locations, so CurrentCrimeMap shows how Henderson compares with nearby places such as North Las Vegas, NV instead of a street-level map.

What is the crime rate in Henderson?

206 violent and 1,400 property crimes per 100,000 residents per year, based on 5,757 incidents reported to Henderson Police Department over the 12 months to July 2026. Violent crime includes 142 robberies (property taken by force or threat); property crime includes 673 burglaries, 1,031 thefts from vehicles and 2,560 other thefts.

Is crime in Henderson going up or down?

It is going down: violent crime −12% and property crime −7% over the last 12 months compared with the 12 months before.

How many homicides has Henderson had in 2026?

Henderson Police Department reported 1 homicide from January to July 2026, the latest month it has reported in full, against 4 in the same months of 2025. Over the 12 months to Jul 2026 the count was 4, or 1 per 100,000 residents.

Where does the data come from?

From Henderson Police Department, via FBI Crime Data Explorer (dataset NV0020300). We count reported incidents by month and offense type and divide by the Census population. Reported crime undercounts actual crime; see the methodology page for what the numbers leave out.

Moving to or visiting Henderson

12 months to July 2026
What most people ask aboutReportedPer 100kvs. the 12 months before
RobberyTaking property by force or threat14240−20%
BurglaryEntering a home or business to steal673188−10%
Theft from vehiclesItems or parts taken from a vehicle, break-ins included1,031288+6%
Vehicle theft733205−30%

What these numbers leave out: most crime never reaches the police. In the federal victim survey (BJS, 2024), about half of violent crimes and less than a third of property crimes were reported, and only a quarter of everyday thefts. Rates are per resident, so busy downtowns and tourist areas look worse than they are for the people who visit them.
