How the places in Franklin city rank across Virginia

Police departments in Franklin city, 2025

Each department’s own report to the FBI; a dash means it did not report every month
Department	Residents served	Violent crimes	Property crimes
Franklin County Sheriff's Office	51,092	69	248
Franklin Police Department	8,452	58	220
Rocky Mount Police Department	4,988	5	144

No county-wide total is published here: the residents the FBI counts for these departments do not match the Census Bureau’s count for the county (a department here also serves another county, or a state police troop is listed here), so a total would not be accurate.

The FBI asks that these figures not be used to rank places or to judge how safe a neighborhood is.
