Is it true that Castle Rock’s growth is bringing more crime?

Although no community is immune from crime, Castle Rock is a very safe community. Castle Rock Police Department (CRPD) strives to keep up with population growth as we continue to provide a high level of public safety service to the community. It is worth noting the Town of Castle Rock has received continued recognition as being among Colorado's safest places from various organizations throughout the years.

Note: Crime statistics are published each year in Castle Rock Police Department Annual Report.
