Safety in Frankfort Square · Not graded

No grade for Frankfort Square, but its recorded crime is here

Drive 10 miles in any direction and you reach 25 towns with grades of their own. Frankfort Square has no police department of its own: it’s an unincorporated community (a census-designated place) in Will County. The Will County Sheriff’s Office reports to the FBI for the parts of the county without police of their own, so there are no figures for Frankfort Square alone, and no Safety Grade. For a graded neighbor, the nearest is Tinley Park (B), 3 miles away.

On the roads

No one died in a crash on Frankfort Square’s roads in 2019–2023

That is fewer than is typical for Illinois towns of 5,000–25,000 people: at their median rate (6.8 deaths per 100,000 residents a year), a town of Frankfort Square’s size would see about 3 in five years. With numbers this small, a death or two either way changes the picture, so Frankfort Square’s own rate (0.0) is context, not a ranking.

Deaths are counted where the crash happened, not where the people lived: a highway through town adds through-traffic deaths, and residents’ own risk on roads elsewhere isn’t here. Town rates sit below state and U.S. rates because a third of fatal crashes happen outside any town. Road safety is described here and is not part of the Safety Grade.

How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • It’s reported crime. Only incidents reported to and recorded by police appear here. Many crimes are never reported to police.
  • A county agency covers a wide area. Its totals mix many communities, so they say little about any one of them.
  • Gaps are real gaps. A missing year means the department didn’t report a full year, not that nothing happened.
