The nearest town with a Safety Grade is Spokane, 4 miles away, graded D−. Town and Country has no police department of its own: it’s an unincorporated community (a census-designated place) in Spokane County. The Spokane 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 Town and Country alone, and no Safety Grade. Drive 10 miles in any direction and you reach 3 towns with grades of their own.
What stands out about safety in Town and Country
Policed by the county
Town and Country is a census-designated place, with no town government. Crimes there are reported to the FBI inside the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office’s totals for the county. County police ↓
Counts, not rates
The FBI doesn’t publish how many people the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office covers, so its totals can’t be turned into a per-resident rate or a grade for Town and Country. County police ↓

One person died in crashes on Town and Country’s roads in 2019–2023
Town and Country had 1 fatal crash in five years, in which one person died.
That is about what is typical for Washington towns of 2,500–5,000 people: at their median rate (0.0 deaths per 100,000 residents a year), a town of Town and Country’s size would see about 0 in five years. With numbers this small, a death or two either way changes the picture, so Town and Country’s own rate (4.1) 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.
- 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.
