Crime Statistics for The Colony Texas
The Colony ~ a safe place to call home


In the fall of 2009, the FBI released its annual "Crime in the United States 2008" report, containing crime statistics for cities across the country. In the table below, the number of violent and property crimes committed in 2008 are compared with the 2007 figures for cities over 5,000 in the 12-county Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington Metro Area. 2008 violent and property crime rates per 100,000 inhabitants are also included.

Like many things you find on the internet, I was not able to verify the original source / person who compiled this data.
