★★★★★★★★★★★★
Miami is a bustling economy with opportunities and dangers.
As a resident or business owner in Coconut Grove, you deserve to feel secure where you live and work.
Coconut Grove, known colloquially as “The Grove,” is the oldest continuously inhabited neighborhood in Miami, Florida. Located south of Brickell and east of Coral Gables, it covers approximately 5.607 square miles with a population of 20,076 as of the 2010 census.
The neighborhood features a mix of historic homes, modern condominiums, lush parks, and a vibrant downtown commercial district along Main Highway and Grand Avenue. Coconut Grove’s rich history dates back to 1825 and includes Bahamian and African-American heritage, a 1960s counterculture scene, and a longstanding artistic presence.
Coconut Grove has a diverse population with 41% Hispanic residents, 38% White, 15% African American, 4% identifying as two or more races, and 2% Asian as of 2010. The median household income is $161,690, significantly higher than the national median of $75,149. However, income inequality persists, with 14% of households earning less than $25,000 annually.
Educational attainment is high, with 36% of residents holding a master’s degree or higher and 33% holding a bachelor’s degree. The neighborhood attracts families and young professionals, with 23% of households having children under 18.
Coconut Grove experiences lower crime rates compared to the City of Miami as a whole, but certain areas face higher risks. The violent crime rate in South Coconut Grove is 5.528 per 1,000 residents, earning a D grade and placing it in the 23rd percentile for safety. North Coconut Grove has a C grade for violent crime with a rate of 4.006 per 1,000 residents.
Property crime is more prevalent, with South Coconut Grove receiving a D- grade. Assault, robbery, and theft are the most common offenses. Vehicle break-ins occur frequently in parking garages and isolated streets.
Coconut Grove’s downtown commercial district, with its many shops, restaurants, and bars, experiences incidents of shoplifting, employee theft, and occasional robberies. Residential neighborhoods face risks of home invasions and burglaries, especially in more affluent areas bordering parks and the shoreline. Condominiums and apartment complexes contend with crimes of opportunity in parking areas and unsecured entrances. The neighborhood’s popularity among tourists and visitors can provide cover for criminal activities.
While Coconut Grove benefits from a visible police presence and rapid emergency response compared to some other Miami neighborhoods, the area’s geography of winding roads and lush foliage provides concealment for illicit activities. Patrols cannot cover every street and back alley. Growing population density from new developments may strain police resources. Coconut Grove’s police force must also balance the needs of permanent residents with a steady influx of tourists and visitors.
With the Miami Police Department stretched thin across a large coverage area, private security personnel provide critical supplemental protection for Coconut Grove’s commercial and residential properties. Uniformed guards serve as a visible deterrent to criminal activity and can respond rapidly to developing incidents.
