Crime in Rutherfordton in next to non-existant. You hardly ever hear of murder or rape here. I'm aware that we have burgleries and so forth, but very serious crime?   More

I consider Russell Springs to be a fine place to live. I have lived here my whole life and have yet to encounter a single crime towards myself. Like all places to live  More
