Crime in Radar Base: the figures, without a grade
Radar Base has no police department of its own: it’s an unincorporated community (a census-designated place) in Maverick County. The Maverick 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 Radar Base alone, and no Safety Grade. For a graded neighbor, the nearest is Eagle Pass (C), 11 miles away.

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.
