What stands out about safety in Home Garden

Home Garden relies on the Kings County Sheriff’s Office

Home Garden 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 Kings County Sheriff’s Office. Across the whole area it patrols, the Kings County Sheriff’s Office reported 265 property and 152 violent crimes in 2025, with property crime down 36% and violent crime up 38% since 2022.

Plan for inland flooding, too

FEMA rates expected storm and flood damage in Home Garden higher than in 87% of U.S. communities, with inland flooding, earthquakes and heat waves the main risks. Be ready ↓

The nearest towns with figures are close by

None of the towns bordering Home Garden reports its own figures either. The closest towns that report to the FBI are Lemoore (9 mi), Corcoran (16 mi) and Kingsburg (16 mi). Their grades run from C− to B−, so treat them as a rough guide, not a stand-in. Nearest towns ↓

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.

Who patrols here

Home Garden is covered by the county

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

Kings County Sheriff’s Office

Crimes reported in the parts of Kings 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 36% since 2022▲ Violent crime up 38% 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.
