Marina Palms Yacht Club and Residences Launch a Safety Awareness Campaign
Although the crime rate continues to drop in North Miami Beach, the crime rate remains above the national average. According to City Data, the United States average crime rate comes in at 301.1, while North Miami Beach's crime rate for 2012 came in at 444.6. The crime rate counts all crimes, although those crimes considered serious or violent receive more weight. In addition, they adjust the numbers based on daily commuters to the city and visitors. Due to the high crime rate, many look to a gated community when purchasing real estate in Miami, and Marina Palms is quickly becoming a favorite.
