What stands out about safety in Oak Hill

Read from the numbers below. The page puts what stands out first.

Who patrols here

Oak Hill is covered by the county

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

Volusia County Sheriff’s Office

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

The Volusia County Sheriff’s Office isn’t in the FBI’s 2023, 2024 and 2025 tables (no full year reported), so 2022 is its newest figure.

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.
