Clarkson, Kentucky, a small community with a population of 1,106 as of 2022, has maintained a remarkable record of zero violent crimes reported across all categories from 2010 to 2022. This unusual trend persists despite fluctuations in population, which grew from 1,151 in 2010 to a peak of 1,408 in 2015, before declining to its current level.

The absence of reported murders, rapes, robberies, and aggravated assaults throughout the entire period is notable. With no incidents recorded, the rate per 1,000 people and the percentage of state crime for all violent crime categories remain at zero. This consistent lack of violent crime suggests Clarkson may have unique characteristics contributing to its safety record.

Given the absence of violent crime data, it's challenging to draw correlations between crime trends and other demographic factors. However, it's worth noting that the city has experienced significant changes in median rent, rising from $381 in 2013 to $611 in 2022, an increase of about 60.4%. The population density has fluctuated, peaking at 1,323 people per square mile in 2015 and settling at 1,039 in 2022. Throughout this period, the racial composition has remained predominantly white, consistently above 93% of the population.
