Property crime: Prince Edward County Sheriff's Office

Prince Edward County Sheriff's Office reported 78 property crimes in 2025, or 507.5 per 100,000 of the 15,370 people it serves. The Virginia rate was 1,394.7. 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 21.5% 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.

A year is shown only when the agency reported all 12 months and the months look complete: we leave out years with several empty months, most offenses in one month or one half of the year, or a total far below the usual level for that agency. Agency type: County. County: Prince Edward. FBI agency identifier (ORI): VA0730000.

Read with care. Counts are offenses reported to this agency. Places with many visitors, shoppers or commuters can show high rates because rates use resident population only. Neighboring areas may be covered by a county sheriff or state police.
