Weekly North Charleston PD statistics
Crime statistics for Marsh Side (the only ROHA neighborhood in the city of North Charleston) and other neighborhoods protected by the city of North Charleston Police Department, Charleston County, City of Charleston, city of Summerville, etc., can be found at this site - https://communitycrimemap.com/. Dorchester County Sheriff's Department doesn't submit their statistics regularly but this is a great resource to see what activities occur in our surrounding neighborhoods. Click on the help icon (question mark) in the upper right corner of the screen for assistance with using the site. If you're interested in individual North Charleston neighborhood crime statistics, the board is occasionally provided with a listing from the City of North Charleston - which only includes crime statistics from Marsh Side in River Oaks. Send an email to RiverOaksAssoc@gmail.com and the files will be sent to your email.
The following information was provided by North Charleston PD to District 9 Representative - Kenneth Skipper. Neighbors in Marsh Side are represented by Mr. Skipper. The rest of the River Oaks neighborhoods are represented by District 3 Representative - Ms. Rita May Ranck (843) 955-9708 RMRanck@DorchesterCountySC.gov. This information is good to know for all neighborhoods - Lock it or lose it.
From NCPD: Breaking and Entering to motor vehicles. Most are left unsecured, and with firearms, electronics, purses left inside. During the course of the night roaming packs are going into the neighborhood and pulling door handles. If it is locked most are just moving on the next car. I can’t stress the importance of locking your car and removing valuables. After these criminals come a few times and find all cars locked we are seeing the crimes reduced. “If there is nothing to steal, they will go somewhere else”.
