Policing Twin Grove: who reports, and what
Twin Grove has no police department of its own: it’s an unincorporated community (a census-designated place) in McLean County. The McLean 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 Twin Grove alone, and no Safety Grade. Inside a 10-mile circle, only Normal carries a grade. Out to 25 miles, the count of graded towns reaches 11.

The nearest Illinois towns with a Safety Grade
Straight-line distance from the center of Twin Grove. Nearby towns can differ a lot from Twin Grove.
Each town’s own police figures, per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025.
No one died in a crash on Twin Grove’s roads in 2019–2023
That is about what is typical for Illinois towns of 2,500–5,000 people: at their median rate (7.1 deaths per 100,000 residents a year), a town of Twin Grove’s size would see about 1 in five years. With numbers this small, a death or two either way changes the picture, so Twin Grove’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.

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.
