About these categories
Homicide, robbery, burglary, theft and vehicle theft come from the same reports Jupiter 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.

Common questions
answered with the data aboveIs Jupiter safe?
By reported violent crime, Jupiter is well below the average of the 302 cities and county areas on this site: 142 violent crimes per 100,000 residents per year over the 12 months to July 2026, +15% 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 Jupiter?
This site does not have one for Jupiter. The figures on this page come from the FBI, which receives city totals rather than locations, so CurrentCrimeMap shows how Jupiter compares with nearby places such as Palm Beach Gardens, FL instead of a street-level map.
What is the crime rate in Jupiter?
142 violent and 500 property crimes per 100,000 residents per year, based on 407 incidents reported to Jupiter Police Department over the 12 months to July 2026. Violent crime includes 8 robberies (property taken by force or threat); property crime includes 30 burglaries, 75 thefts from vehicles and 210 other thefts.
Is crime in Jupiter going up or down?
It is going up: violent crime +15% and property crime −27% over the last 12 months compared with the 12 months before.
How many homicides has Jupiter had in 2026?
Jupiter Police Department reported 1 homicide from January to July 2026, the latest month it has reported in full, against 0 in the same months of 2025. Over the 12 months to Jul 2026 the count was 1, or 2 per 100,000 residents.
Where does the data come from?
From Jupiter Police Department, via FBI Crime Data Explorer (dataset FL0501700). 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 Jupiter
12 months to July 2026- Violent crime was up 15% and property crime down 27% over the 12 months to July 2026, compared with the 12 months before.
- 1 homicide over the 12 months to July 2026.
| What most people ask about | Reported | Per 100k | vs. the 12 months before |
|---|---|---|---|
| RobberyTaking property by force or threat | 8 | 13 | −11% |
| BurglaryEntering a home or business to steal | 30 | 47 | −40% |
| Theft from vehiclesItems or parts taken from a vehicle, break-ins included | 75 | 118 | −16% |
| Vehicle theft | 1 | 2 | – |
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.
