What stands out about safety in Yankeetown

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

Who patrols here

Yankeetown is covered by the county

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

Levy County Sheriff’s Office

Crimes reported in the parts of Levy 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 18% since 2023▲ Violent crime up 10% 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.
