Is Redlands safe to walk?
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 most were at Citrus Ave & 5th St (12). 32% involved a driver turning, 19% turning left. 46% of the people hit were in a crosswalk at an intersection.
