Property crime: Spencer County Sheriff's Office
Spencer County Sheriff's Office reported 47 property crimes in 2025, or 237.1 per 100,000 of the 19,822 people it serves. The Kentucky rate was 1,282.9. As a county agency it usually serves only the areas without their own city police, so its population and rate are not comparable with a city's. The agency's rate was down 31.9% from 2024. Its reported figures changed by more than half from one shown year to the next in 2024, which usually signals a change in reporting, so we do not compare across that year.
