Violent crimes per 1,000 residents
By type 2023–2025, counts
Weedsport’s police reported 0 violent crimes to the FBI over 2023–2025, about 0.0 per 1,000 residents a year, against 5.0 in the rest of New York and the FBI’s national estimate of 3.6.
One person died in crashes on Weedsport’s roads in 2019–2023
Weedsport had 1 fatal crash in five years, in which one person died.
That is about what is typical for New York towns of 2,500–5,000 people: at their median rate (6.1 deaths per 100,000 residents a year), a town of Weedsport’s size would see about 1 in five years. With numbers this small, a death or two either way changes the picture, so Weedsport’s own rate (10.2) 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.
- One number for all of Weedsport. A town-wide rate doesn’t show where incidents happen, and that can differ a lot from one part of town to another.
- Visitors count too. Incidents involving people who work, shop or visit are counted against Weedsport’s residents, which raises the per-resident rate.
- Whose population. Rates use the FBI’s population for the department (1,749 in 2025); our figure for Weedsport is 1,760 (2025 Census estimate).
- Gaps are real gaps. A missing year means the department didn’t report a full year, not that nothing happened.
