What stands out about safety in Carlton

Carlton relies on the Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Office

Carlton 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 Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Office. Across the whole area it patrols, the Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Office reported 29 property and 13 violent crimes in 2025, with property crime down 36% since 2022. Who patrols here ↓

The nearest towns with figures are close by

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.

Who patrols here

Carlton is covered by the county

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

Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Office

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

Property crimes (burglary, theft, stolen cars)

Violent crimes (assault, robbery, rape, murder)

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.
