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.

Crimes reported to the FBI per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. McConnell AFB is an unincorporated community (a census-designated place) with no police department of its own. Gypsum Township, Salem Township, Derby and Rockford Township have no FBI figures of their own for 2023–2025. Haysville reported to the FBI for 2024 and 2025 but not 2023.

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.
