How it works

Three steps to a safer stop

1

Enter a city & place type

Type any US city and what you're looking for — Walmart, gas station, rest stop, or anything else.

2

We score every location

SafeStop pulls FBI Crime Data Explorer records at the zip code or city level — not just the county — and calculates a safety score from 1 to 10 for each result.

3

Pick the safest stop

Results appear on a color-coded map ranked by score. Bright green is Very Safe, teal is Safe, amber means Use Caution, and red means Avoid.

Very Safe
Score 8.5 – 10
Very low crime. A comfortable stop for the whole family.
Safe

Below-average crime. Generally a good choice to stop.
Use Caution
Score 4.0 – 6.4
Average crime levels. Stay aware of your surroundings.
Avoid
Score below 4.0
Above-average crime. Consider finding an alternative stop.
