Overall safety score

Poe Mill is a historic textile mill neighborhood undergoing gradual revitalization, but it continues to experience elevated rates of property crime and occasional violent incidents relative to Greenville County averages. Daytime visits to nearby community amenities and developments are generally fine, but visitors should stay alert and avoid walking alone after dark.”

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.
