Del Dios is covered by the county

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

San Diego County Sheriff’s Office

Crimes reported in the parts of San Diego 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 74% since 2022▼ Violent crime down 56% 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.

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.
