Edgewood law enforcement officers grappled with 545 crimes against property in 2020, according to the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS).

Of all types of crime tracked by the NIBRS, identity theft was the most popular crime handled by the Edgewood office.

The NIBRS was designed to provide detail and context around crime stats. Under the previous system, only the most serious crime related to an incident would be logged.

It is used by law enforcement at all levels, from local to federal.
