Sugar Creek, MO crime: up or down?
Newest FBI monthly report: Aug 2026
Jul–Aug 2026 look incomplete so far (reports are still coming in), so this compares Apr–Jun 2026.
These months run 86% below the same months in past years. A drop that size is usually reports not sent yet or a new records system counting differently, so Crime Radar won't call it a real drop until more months come in.
The map adds deadly crashes, plus plate-reader cameras and police surveillance technology where they are known, and lets you save the place to see what changes.

Is Sugar Creek 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 Sugar Creek has more or fewer reported crimes than it usually does, and that its yearly rate is 25.7 per 1,000 residents against 20.4 across Missouri. For one block, open it on the map.
How this works
Sugar Creek 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).
