Greenwich Police Blotter: Property Crime Plummets as Complaints Spike
Data from the newly launched—though notoriously difficult to navigate—Greenwich Crime Data Portal offers fresh insight into local crime trends for June 2026. While the town saw a welcome reprieve in property crime, the news wasn’t all positive.
In total, Greenwich Police responded to 3,149 calls for service in June, with a notable volume of those calls driven by 310 false burglar alarms (compared to 286 last month) and 220 leaf blower complaints (compared to 63 last month).
Residential Burglaries: Only 1 residential burglary was reported on Baldwin Farms Drive in mid-country, continuing a reprieve from higher levels seen at the beginning of the year.
Motor Vehicle Thefts: Only 1 vehicle theft was reported on Lockwood Avenue in Old Greenwich, a welcome drop from 5 reported last month.
Larceny from Motor Vehicles (Car Break-ins): Only 1 vehicle break-in was reported on Old Field Point Road, near Equinox, a significant drop from 9 reported last month.
Between the Lines: Fortunately, serious crime is down, but Greenwich residents are still keeping the police busy with their complaints.
