What stands out about safety in Arco

Arco relies on the Butte County Sheriff’s Office

Arco 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 Butte County Sheriff’s Office. Across the whole area it patrols, the Butte County Sheriff’s Office reported 13 property and 4 violent crimes in 2022. Who patrols here ↓

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.

Arco is covered by the county

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

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

The Butte 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.

Crime: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Crime Data Explorer: offenses known to law enforcement by city, and state and national rates. Counts are crimes reported to police, not convictions. 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. This isn’t an official statement of public safety. In an emergency, call 911.
