Is Cape Coral safe?

We don't rate cities as safe or unsafe. The FBI has no complete 2025 year for the Cape Coral Police Department, so there is no 2025 rate to compare.

What these numbers can't tell you:

  • How crime differs between neighborhoods (the FBI publishes agency totals only).
  • Crimes nobody reported to the police.
  • How many offenses involved visitors and commuters, who are not in the population count.

Police employees, 2025: 1.68 per 1,000 residents (308 officers, 102 civilians), FBI Crime Data Explorer. Shown as context, not as a measure of crime.
