What stands out about safety in Kaanapali

Kaanapali relies on the Maui Police Department

Kaanapali has no police department of its own in the FBI’s data, so there’s no crime rate or Safety Grade for the town itself. Calls here most likely go to the Maui Police Department. Across the whole area it patrols, the Maui Police Department reported 4,161 property and 498 violent crimes in 2025. Who patrols here ↓

Plan for tsunamis, too

FEMA rates expected storm and flood damage in Kaanapali higher than in 89% of U.S. communities, with tsunamis, inland flooding and earthquakes the main risks. Be ready ↓

Written from the FBI data on this page. County and state agency figures cover their whole patrol area, not just this town, so they can’t be turned into a rate.

Crime: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Crime Data Explorer: offenses known to law enforcement by city, and state and national rates. Counts are crimes reported to police, not convictions. The Safety Grade is our own summary of that data, not an official rating. Natural hazards: FEMA National Risk Index and flood insurance claims. Hospitals: CMS Hospital General Information. This isn’t an official statement of public safety. In an emergency, call 911.
