The small town of Columbus, MN has seen a significant decrease in both violent and property crime rates in recent years. According to the most recent data, the violent crime rate in Columbus is 7.1, significantly lower than the national average of 22.7. This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of local law enforcement and community members to keep their town safe. However, it is important to note that the property crime rate in Columbus is still relatively high at 20.7, compared to the US average of 35.4. As a resident of Columbus, I am proud of the progress we have made in reducing violent crime, but recognize the need for continued efforts to address property crime and create a safer environment for all.
