Glenford is covered by the county

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

Perry County Sheriff’s Office

Crimes reported in the parts of Perry 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 18% since 2022▲ Violent crime up 68% 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.
