The crime in Delaware is mix. Delaware like the rest of the country has an Heroin Epidemic. sadly there is an obituary in the town paper of someone who overdosed.
Then of course of so many people addicted to this drug and others certain crimes happen a lot. Car break ins a lot. Home theft. Thankfully I have not heard of many being subjected to violent crime, say being stuck up. The town has a LOT of Sex offenders on probation now and the numbers seem to be growing. They are scattered around town. But the concentration of them seems to be around Lake and Central Ave. on East side of town. Do I feel safe in Delaware yes very much. Do I feel like my Children can move about throughout town. Yes. we have an excellent police force, who is out all the time. I have lived here 17 yrs and do not plan to leave this town on if the population keeps rising to much. Delaware still has a small town feel. I would move here. Welcome.
