North Redington Beach, Florida, a small coastal community, has experienced notable fluctuations in property crime rates over the past decade. From 2010 to 2020, the total number of property crimes decreased by 59.5%, from 42 to 17 incidents. During this same period, the population decreased by 5.5%, from 1,190 to 1,124 residents, indicating that the reduction in property crime outpaced the population decline.
Burglary rates in the city have shown a significant downward trend. In 2010, there were 7 burglaries reported, which decreased to 2 in 2020, representing a 71.4% reduction. When adjusted for population, the burglary rate fell from 5.88 per 1,000 residents in 2010 to 1.78 per 1,000 in 2020. The city's contribution to state-wide burglary incidents remained minimal, fluctuating between 0.01% and 0% of the state's total, suggesting that local efforts may have been effective in curbing this type of crime.
Larceny-theft, the most common property crime in the area, also demonstrated a substantial decrease. The number of incidents dropped from 35 in 2010 to 14 in 2020, a 60% reduction. The rate per 1,000 residents decreased from 29.41 in 2010 to 12.46 in 2020. Despite this decline, larceny-theft consistently accounted for 0.01% of the state's total, indicating that the city maintained a relatively stable, albeit small, proportion of Florida's larceny-theft incidents.
Motor vehicle theft in the city has remained relatively low, with slight fluctuations. There were no reported cases in 2010, but by 2020, there was 1 incident. The rate per 1,000 residents went from 0 in 2010 to 0.89 in 2020. The city's contribution to state-wide motor vehicle theft incidents ranged from 0% to 0.01%, reflecting its minimal impact on overall state figures.
Arson incidents in North Redington Beach have been consistently reported as zero from 2010 to 2020, indicating either an absence of such crimes or potentially underreporting. This consistency results in a 0% contribution to state-wide arson incidents throughout the analyzed period.
Examining correlations, there appears to be a moderate inverse relationship between property crime rates and median income. As the median income increased from $66,598 in 2013 to $89,325 in 2020, total property crimes decreased from 18 to 17 during the same period. However, this correlation is not strong enough to suggest causation, and other factors likely contribute to the crime rate fluctuations.
Applying predictive models based on the available data, it's projected that by 2029, property crime rates in North Redington Beach may continue their overall downward trend, potentially reaching as low as 10-12 incidents annually. However, this prediction should be considered cautiously due to the small sample size and potential for unforeseen factors influencing crime rates.
In summary, North Redington Beach has experienced a significant overall reduction in property crime rates between 2010 and 2020, with burglary and larceny-theft showing the most substantial decreases. This trend, coupled with the city's minimal contribution to state-wide crime figures, suggests that local law enforcement strategies and community efforts may have been effective in improving public safety. The projected continuation of this downward trend in property crimes could further enhance the quality of life for residents in this Florida coastal community.
