About these categories

Homicide, robbery, burglary, theft and vehicle theft come from the same reports Irving 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 (87th highest rate of 155), robbery (98th highest rate of 152) and burglary (74th highest rate of 168).

Common questions

answered with the data above
Is Irving safe?

By reported violent crime, Irving is well below the average of the 302 cities and county areas on this site: 259 violent crimes per 100,000 residents per year over the 12 months to August 2026, −5% 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 Irving?

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

What is the crime rate in Irving?

259 violent and 1,531 property crimes per 100,000 residents per year, based on 4,622 incidents reported to Irving Police Department over the 12 months to August 2026. Violent crime includes 109 robberies (property taken by force or threat); property crime includes 572 burglaries, 984 thefts from vehicles and 1,838 other thefts.

Is crime in Irving going up or down?

It is going down: violent crime −5% and property crime −22% over the last 12 months compared with the 12 months before.

How many homicides has Irving had in 2026?

Irving Police Department reported 1 homicide from January to August 2026, the latest month it has reported in full, against 2 in the same months of 2025. Over the 12 months to Aug 2026 the count was 3, or 1 per 100,000 residents.

Where does the data come from?

From Irving Police Department, via FBI Crime Data Explorer (dataset TX0571500). 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 Irving

12 months to August 2026
What most people ask aboutReportedPer 100kvs. the 12 months before
RobberyTaking property by force or threat10942−13%
BurglaryEntering a home or business to steal572222−9%
Theft from vehiclesItems or parts taken from a vehicle, break-ins included984381−24%
Vehicle theft554215−31%

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.
