Pomona is covered by the county and the state

Pomona has no police department of its own in the FBI’s data. Calls here most likely go to the Atlantic County Sheriff’s Office and the New Jersey State Police, and their numbers cover the whole area they patrol, not just Pomona.

Atlantic County Sheriff’s Office

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

Property crimes (burglary, theft, stolen cars)

Violent crimes (assault, robbery, rape, murder)

New Jersey State Police

The State Police also patrol Atlantic County, mostly its rural roads and towns.

Property crimes (burglary, theft, stolen cars)

Violent crimes (assault, robbery, rape, murder)

→ Property crime about the same since 2024▼ Violent crime down 15% since 2024

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.
