Sullivan, IL crime: up or down?

Newest FBI monthly report: Sep 2026

The newest reports look incomplete

The latest months are far below the usual level, which usually means reports are still being sent, not that crime stopped.

Is Sullivan safe?

Crime Radar doesn't grade towns as safe or unsafe: one number can't say what a street is like, and the FBI warns against ranking places. What these reports can say is whether Sullivan has more or fewer reported crimes than it usually does. For one block, open it on the map.

How this works

Sullivan Police Department sends monthly counts of violent and property crime to the FBI. Crime Radar compares the newest complete three months with the same months in past years, and only calls a change when it's bigger than this department's usual ups and downs. Months with missing reports are left out, so a reporting gap never looks like a safe stretch. These are totals for everywhere the department patrols, not one street.

Not every crime reaches these numbers: in the national victim survey, about 6 in 10 serious violent crimes and 3 in 10 property crimes were reported to police in 2024 (BJS).
