What stands out about safety in Blooming Grove

Blooming Grove relies on the Dane County Sheriff’s Office

Blooming Grove has no police department of its own in the FBI’s data, so there’s no crime rate or Safety Grade for the town itself. Calls here most likely go to the Dane County Sheriff’s Office. Across the whole area it patrols, the Dane County Sheriff’s Office reported 318 property and 49 violent crimes in 2025, with property crime down 42% and violent crime down 51% since 2022.

Written from the FBI data on this page. County and state agency figures cover their whole patrol area, not just this town, so they can’t be turned into a rate.

Blooming Grove is covered by the county

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

Dane County Sheriff’s Office

Crimes reported in the parts of Dane 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 42% since 2022▼ Violent crime down 51% 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.
