South Carolina Crime by City

Every South Carolina city that reported to the FBI in 2025, ranked on total crime, violent crime, property crime and other offenses. Built from the raw incident file, not a summary. Click any city on the map or in the list for the full breakdown.

Highest High Moderate Lower Lowest Circle size = population
Rate per 100k

Read this before you use these numbers

Rates are per 100,000 residents. In a town of 1,200 people, a handful of incidents produces a rate that looks catastrophic and means very little. Use the population filter.

Small towns are marked. Cities that reported fewer than 12 months to the FBI are also marked, and their totals are incomplete rather than low.

A city missing from this list did not report to the FBI at all. Absent does not mean safe.

City police departments only. County sheriffs cover different territory and report separately.

Important notice

This page presents publicly available crime statistics published by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and, where noted, by individual police departments. The Finigan Group did not collect this data and does not verify its accuracy or completeness.

This is information, not advice. Nothing on this page is a recommendation, endorsement, or warning about any city, neighborhood, or property. We do not rate, rank, or characterize any area as safe or unsafe.

FBI data is reported voluntarily and coverage is incomplete. Some agencies reported fewer than twelve months in 2025 and some did not report at all. Rates in small municipalities can shift dramatically from a small number of incidents. Data reflects the calendar year shown and conditions change.

Buyers should conduct their own independent research and due diligence regarding any location. Contact the relevant local law enforcement agency directly for current information about a specific address.

The Finigan Group complies with the Fair Housing Act. We do not steer clients toward or away from any area, and we do not discuss the racial, ethnic, religious, or demographic composition of any neighborhood. All buyers are welcome in every community we serve.
