Is Madera safe to ride a motorcycle?
This page covers traffic crashes, not crime. We don't rate cities as safe or unsafe: crash counts can't say how risky a street is, and busy streets have more crashes partly because more people use them. The records for Madera are also incomplete: only 41% of its reported motorcycle crashes have a map location, so the numbers here are too low. What the records show: 28 motorcycle crashes were reported in Madera from 2021–2026, 8 of them serious or fatal (2 fatal).
