Safety in Bohemia

Bohemia doesn’t have its own police figures in the FBI’s data. It’s most likely covered by the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office, the Suffolk County Police Department and the New York State Police. Below is what they report, along with the nearest towns that have their own numbers.

Bohemia is covered by the county and the state

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

Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office

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

Property crimes (burglary, theft, stolen cars)

Violent crimes (assault, robbery, rape, murder)

▲ Violent crime up 15% since 2023
Suffolk County Police Department

Crimes reported in the parts of Suffolk 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 down 55% since 2022▼ Violent crime down 46% since 2022

The Suffolk County Police Department isn’t in the FBI’s 2024 and 2025 tables (no full year reported), so 2023 is its newest figure.

New York State Police

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

Property crimes (burglary, theft, stolen cars)

Violent crimes (assault, robbery, rape, murder)

▲ Property crime up 43% since 2022▼ Violent crime down 15% since 2022

The State Police aren’t in the FBI’s 2024 and 2025 tables (no full year reported), so 2023 is their 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.
