What Crime Data Tells Us About Yuma Right Now
Yuma handles more cross-border traffic than most Arizona cities combined. The Marine Corps Air Station, the Yuma Crossing port of entry, and a $3 billion agricultural industry create constant movement and constant exposure.
FBI crime data consistently show Yuma’s property crime rate is above the national average. Larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and burglary hit hardest in commercial corridors, warehouse districts, and construction zones. The properties hit most often are the ones that were assumed to be low-risk.
Yuma is also expanding fast. New distribution centers, retail development along the Yuma Palms corridor, and residential growth off the I-8 mean more assets in play and more gaps for criminals to exploit. Waiting for something to happen is not a strategy.
PROTECTING YOU IS WHAT COVEY OFFICERS ARE TRAINED TO DO BEST.
