About these categories

Homicide, robbery, burglary, theft and vehicle theft come from the same reports Pembroke Pines 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 above
Is Pembroke Pines safe?

By reported violent crime, Pembroke Pines is well below the average of the 302 cities and county areas on this site: 51 violent crimes per 100,000 residents per year over the 12 months to August 2026. Safety varies a lot by neighborhood, so the citywide figure is only a starting point.

Is there a crime map for Pembroke Pines?

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

What is the crime rate in Pembroke Pines?

51 violent and 540 property crimes per 100,000 residents per year, based on 1,064 incidents reported to Pembroke Pines Police Department over the 12 months to August 2026. Violent crime includes 24 robberies (property taken by force or threat); property crime includes 45 burglaries, 216 thefts from vehicles and 628 other thefts.

Is crime in Pembroke Pines going up or down?

Pembroke Pines has 24 months of data on this site so far, not enough for a year-over-year comparison. In August 2026, violent crime was unchanged versus the previous month.

How many homicides has Pembroke Pines had in 2026?

Pembroke Pines Police Department reported 0 homicides from January to August 2026, the latest month it has reported in full, against 1 in the same months of 2025. Over the 12 months to Aug 2026 the count was 0, or 0 per 100,000 residents.

Where does the data come from?

From Pembroke Pines Police Department, via FBI Crime Data Explorer (dataset FL0060800). 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 Pembroke Pines

12 months to August 2026
What most people ask aboutReportedPer 100kvs. the 12 months before
RobberyTaking property by force or threat2413+700%
BurglaryEntering a home or business to steal4525−10%
Theft from vehiclesItems or parts taken from a vehicle, break-ins included216120−44%
Vehicle theft8246−31%

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.
