Today, we are releasing the latest crime statistics for the city, providing an overview of trends and our ongoing efforts to enhance public safety. Crime statistics are tracked in accordance with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) categories and standards.

We want to assure residents that data does not support the assertions that crime in Findlay is on the rise and clarify our commitment to factual information and public safety. Our latest statistics indicate that overall crime rates in the city have remained stable. The City Administration and Police Department will continue to analyze crime trends, adjust strategies, and work closely with the community to provide accurate information. We remain dedicated to fostering a safe and secure environment for all residents.
