Who patrols here

Sewall's Point is covered by the county

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

Martin County Sheriff’s Office

Crimes reported in the parts of Martin 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 35% since 2023▼ Violent crime down 27% since 2023

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.
