The crime stats for Brookhaven are well below the state averages which indicates that it is a safe place to live or visit. The only high repetitive crimes on record are Burglary and Car Theft. Those crimes have little affect on tourists who remember to lock their car doors.
There are no registered sex offenders in the whole Brookhaven area.
The local police force has had a major crime prevention task force operating for the last three years and this has been a major cause for the good conditions in the area.
We had no problems or even hint of a problem when we were in the region. Everyone we met was cordial (even if they did talk with an accent).
