Peaceful Valley is covered by the county
Peaceful Valley has no police department of its own in the FBI’s data. Calls here most likely go to the Slope County Sheriff’s Office, and its numbers cover the whole area it patrols, not just Peaceful Valley.

The Slope County Sheriff’s Office isn’t in the FBI’s 2024 and 2025 tables (no full year reported), so 2023 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.
