Winfield is covered by the county and the state

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

Union County Sheriff’s Office

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

Property crimes (burglary, theft, stolen cars)

Violent crimes (assault, robbery, rape, murder)

The Union County Sheriff’s Office isn’t in the FBI’s 2025 table (no full year reported), so 2024 is its newest figure.

Pennsylvania State Police

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

Property crimes (burglary, theft, stolen cars)

Violent crimes (assault, robbery, rape, murder)

▼ Property crime down 40% since 2022▼ Violent crime down 39% 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.

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.
