Ruckersville, VA has a relatively low crime rate compared to the rest of the United States, with a violent crime rate of 9.7 and a property crime rate of 22.8. However, even with these lower numbers, the community still faces issues with crime. Recently, there has been an increase in drug-related crimes, particularly with the rise of opioid addiction in the area. This has led to a higher number of thefts and burglaries as individuals turn to these crimes to support their addiction. Additionally, there have been instances of violent crimes, such as domestic violence and assault. Despite efforts by law enforcement to address these issues, the crime rate in Ruckersville remains a concern for residents and officials alike. As a resident of this community, I have noticed the impact of these crimes and hope for continued efforts to keep our community safe.
