Stickney is covered by the county

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

Cook County Sheriff’s Office

Crimes reported in the parts of Cook 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 up 68% since 2023▲ Violent crime up 175% 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.
