Safety in Price Township · Not graded

What is recorded in Price Township, and why there is no grade

Widen the search to 25 miles and 6 graded towns turn up. The FBI holds no crime figures for Price Township alone for 2023–2025, so it can’t be graded. For a graded neighbor, the nearest is Pocono Township (C+), 6 miles away.

On the roads

Two people died in crashes on Price Township’s roads in 2019–2023

Price Township had 2 fatal crashes in five years, in which two people died.

That is about what is typical for Pennsylvania towns of 2,500–5,000 people: at their median rate (7.1 deaths per 100,000 residents a year), a town of Price Township’s size would see about 1 in five years. With numbers this small, a death or two either way changes the picture, so Price Township’s own rate (10.7) 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.

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.
