Overall, Troy grades B for safety (#116 of 296 graded towns in Ohio): less crime per resident than 64% of U.S. towns, on crimes its police reported to the FBI in 2023–2025.
Crimes reported to the FBI per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. “Rest of OH” is every other Ohio city and town in the FBI’s tables; the U.S. figure is the FBI’s national estimate as published, averaged over the three years. The FBI publishes no national homicide or robbery rate in our data, so those compare with all U.S. cities and towns in its tables.

Nine people died in crashes on Troy’s roads in 2019–2023
Troy had 9 fatal crashes in five years, in which nine people died; 1 was a cyclist. 2 died in crashes on an Interstate.
That is about what is typical for Ohio towns of 25,000–100,000 people: at their median rate (4.7 deaths per 100,000 residents a year), a town of Troy’s size would see about 6 in five years. With numbers this small, a death or two either way changes the picture, so Troy’s own rate (6.7) 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 Troy. 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 Troy’s residents, which raises the per-resident rate.
- Whose population. Rates use the FBI’s population for the department (27,309 in 2025); our figure for Troy is 27,344 (2025 Census estimate).
- Gaps are real gaps. A missing year means the department didn’t report a full year, not that nothing happened.
