Caution

Overall safety score

“Go with care. While the Historic Northwest is rich in cultural heritage and undergoing municipal revitalization, crime rates remain notably higher here than in neighboring downtown West Palm Beach. Visitors should stick to well-traveled corridors during daylight hours or when visiting specific destinations like the restored Sunset Lounge.”

About the area

Historic / Culturally RichUrban TransitionRevitalizingClose to Downtown

The Historic Northwest is one of West Palm Beach's oldest African American communities, located just northwest of the downtown core. The area blends historic shotgun homes, churches, and jazz-era landmarks with active community redevelopment projects.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
