What stands out about safety in Clear Creek

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

Who patrols here

Clear Creek is covered by the county

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

Vernon County Sheriff’s Office

Crimes reported in the parts of Vernon 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 30% since 2022▲ Violent crime up 66% since 2022

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.
