According to the most recent data from the FBI, the total crime rate in Watertown is 1,379.2 per 100,000 people. That's -44.31% lower than the national rate of 2,476.7 per 100,000 people and -14.34% lower than the Connecticut total crime rate of 1,610.2 per 100,000 people.
Note: Because the rates of crime are so low in America, we use "per 100,000 people" to make the number a bit easier to compare across locations visually. It's mathematically the same as doing per capita comparisons and isn't conveying that there are 100,000+ people in a location.
