As a resident of Independence, CA, I am constantly aware of the crime statistics that are reported about our town. According to recent data, Independence has a violent crime rate of 21.9, just slightly lower than the national average of 22.7. However, our property crime rate is significantly higher at 43.3, compared to the national average of 35.4. This means that while we may not have as many violent crimes, our community is still greatly affected by property crimes such as theft and burglary. It's important for us to remain vigilant and take precautions to protect ourselves and our belongings. Despite these statistics, I still feel a strong sense of community and safety in Independence, and I believe that by working together, we can continue to improve our town and reduce these crime rates.
