Safety

Serquigny has less crime per resident than 65% of compared French towns

Police and gendarmerie recorded 32 offenses in the graded categories in Serquigny in 2025. For other physical violence, sexual violence, burglary, vehicle theft and theft from vehicles, this figure isn’t published when it’s small (five or fewer in at least one of the last three years); the index uses the département’s average instead, 23.2% of the index here. Because that share is over 10%, this Safety Grade is less sure than most. With 1,050 jobs for 600 working residents, Serquigny draws people from neighboring communes, and crimes are counted in the commune where they happen, then divided by its number of residents.
