Go, stay aware

Overall safety score

“Go with care. While outer residential subdivisions and nature areas are peaceful and generally safe, the arterial corridors along West Tennessee Street and Blountstown Highway experience sporadic property crime and petty offenses. Visitors will find plenty of quiet space and outdoor recreation by car, provided they practice basic situational awareness along commercial strips.”
— Gogo, on Outer West Tallahassee

About the area

Car-DependentSuburbanWoodedSprawling

Outer West Tallahassee is a spacious, suburban-to-semi-rural sector stretching west of Tallahassee State College towards Lake Talquin. It consists primarily of single-family subdivisions, wooded tracts, and strip retail hubs along major state routes. It caters mostly to commuters, families, and students seeking lower-density living away from the university core.

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.
