Go ahead and take a walk.
Anytime, any neighborhood, any street, any park. Crime
is low in Two Rivers. In fact - serious crime is very rare.
Just take a look at the
monthly Police Department report to see for
yourself.
2004 is a good recent example. Crime statistics
released on May 16, 2005 by the State’s Office of
Justice Assistance show that so-called Index Offenses,
used for tracking crime rates in Wisconsin communities
and statewide, dropped by about 6.5 percent in Two
Rivers in 2004. This compares with a 5.8 percent drop
state-wide. Manitowoc’s 2004 rate was up by 12.8
percent.
We're proud of our professional
police force. It's the people of Two Rivers, however,
who are responsible for our safe and friendly city.
