CivicScout counts police reports that carry a map location (the Montgomery County Police Department and the Rockville City, Gaithersburg City and Takoma Park departments) and traffic crashes inside the Poolesville Census-place outline. About 1 in 7 reports in the county feed, and 1 in 6 reports of serious violent crime, carries no map location, so the counts understate crime, violent crime included, and cannot show that an area has little of it. Incidents handled by the Chevy Chase Village, campus, federal and park police do not appear. In the year to November 2026 nearly half of the reports with a Poolesville mailing address carried no map location, so the count here understates crime more than most places.
