About these categories

Homicide, robbery, burglary, theft and vehicle theft come from the same reports North Las Vegas 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 (34th highest rate of 155), robbery (43rd highest rate of 152) and burglary (81st highest rate of 168).

Common questions

answered with the data above
Is North Las Vegas safe?

By reported violent crime, North Las Vegas is below the average of the 302 cities and county areas on this site: 362 violent crimes per 100,000 residents per year over the 12 months to June 2026, +9% 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 North Las Vegas?

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

What is the crime rate in North Las Vegas?

362 violent and 1,548 property crimes per 100,000 residents per year, based on 5,785 incidents reported to North Las Vegas Police Department over the 12 months to June 2026. Violent crime includes 280 robberies (property taken by force or threat); property crime includes 590 burglaries, 715 thefts from vehicles and 2,081 other thefts.

Is crime in North Las Vegas going up or down?

It is going up: violent crime +9% and property crime −9% over the last 12 months compared with the 12 months before.

How many homicides has North Las Vegas had in 2026?

North Las Vegas Police Department reported 6 homicides from January to June 2026, the latest month it has reported in full, against 13 in the same months of 2025. Over the 12 months to Jun 2026 the count was 15, or 5 per 100,000 residents.

Where does the data come from?

From North Las Vegas Police Department, via FBI Crime Data Explorer (dataset NV0020200). 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 North Las Vegas

BurglaryEntering a home or business to steal590195
Theft from vehiclesItems or parts taken from a vehicle, break-ins included715236
Vehicle theft1,273420

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.
