Located in the heart of Arkansas, Malvern has a reputation for being a peaceful and safe community. However, recent statistics show that the city is struggling with crime. According to the latest data, the rate of violent crime in Malvern is 19.9, which is slightly lower than the national average of 22.7. This means that residents of Malvern are at a slightly lower risk of being a victim of a violent crime compared to the rest of the country. However, the property crime rate in Malvern is higher than the national average at 38.8, compared to 35.4. This means that residents are more likely to experience theft, burglary, and other property-related offenses. As a resident of Malvern, I am concerned about the rising crime rates and hope that steps will be taken to ensure the safety and security of our community.
