Who patrols here

Violet Hill is covered by the county

Violet Hill has no police department of its own in the FBI’s data. Calls here most likely go to the Izard County Sheriff’s Office, and its numbers cover the whole area it patrols, not just Violet Hill.

Izard County Sheriff’s Office

Crimes reported in the parts of Izard County it patrols: the towns and villages without police of their own.

Property crimes (burglary, theft, stolen cars)

Violent crimes (assault, robbery, rape, murder)

▼ Property crime down 68% since 2022▼ Violent crime down 69% since 2022

These are counts, not rates. The FBI doesn’t publish how many people each agency covers, so we can’t turn them into a per-resident figure or a Safety Grade. Source: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting, offenses known to law enforcement by county and by state agency.
