Caution

Overall safety score

“Go with care. Terra Cotta is a quiet, historic residential enclave with deep industrial roots, but its proximity to major commercial thoroughfares like West Market Street brings moderate property crime and occasional safety concerns. Visitors passing through to appreciate the community history or visit nearby venues should remain aware of their surroundings, particularly after dark.”
— Gogo, on Terra Cotta

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.
