Crime Rate Drops Again in Palmdale
2018 Crime Rate Finishes at a Decades Low 192
The City of Palmdale and Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) Palmdale Station have announced a 9.35% decrease
in the number of Part I crimes reported for all of 2018 resulting in a crime rate of 192 crimes per 10,000 population for the year. It
marks the lowest crime rate in Palmdale in nearly a quarter of a century.
After the crime rate reached 467.71 in 1996, the City set a goal to push the crime rate below 300 by 2009, which was successful.
The goal was reset to drive the rate below 200, and was accomplished in 2018.
“The continued efforts of our community policing, which combine the skills, talents and contributions of our deputies, City
staff, and community members working together, are making our community safer,” said Palmdale Sheriff’s Station Captain Ron
Shaffer. “We continue to receive and appreciate the support of our local elected officials.”
“Our City Council continues to make public safety their top priority,” said Palmdale City Manager Jim Purtee. “It’s reflected
in our annual budget and a myriad of community partnerships. We’re seeing the fruits of our efforts and programs through
measureable results in the field. We have a lot more work to do, but we are working hard to make sure our residents and business
owners feel and know they are living and working in a safe community.”
Partnerships are Key
Partnership with the community has had a positive impact on bringing crime down. “Our Neighborhood Watch program has
brought neighbors, City staff and law enforcement together to help keep crime out of our neighborhoods,” said Palmdale Public
Safety Supervisor Kery German. “There have been many instances where observant neighbors have helped solve or prevent crimes
through ‘seeing something and saying something.’”
In addition, the City’s Crime Free Multifamily program, which focuses on apartments and multifamily dwellings, added several
new properties, with a common goal to keep them safe and viable for residents.
“All in all, a huge ’thank you‘ goes to our dedicated deputies, our community members and our community partners who
continue to come together as a team and work hard for our community,” said Director of Neighborhood Services Mike Miller.

GENERAL PLAN
FACT SHEET
PALMDALE 2045
What is a General Plan?
The General Plan serves as the City’s primary guide for land use
and development decisions and is a key tool for influencing and
improving the quality of life for residents and businesses. As such,
it serves as the “blueprint” for future development and
conservation of a community. The General Plan will help the City

the overall identity and quality of life in Palmdale;
• Ensuring equitable distribution of services, goods and
amenities in the City;
• Capitalizing on major infrastructure investments such as
High-Speed Rail and the Airport;
• Addressing transportation challenges such as traffic
congestion, the bicycle network and transit;
• Planning for natural emergencies including earthquakes and
wildfires;
• Increasing opportunities for location of parks and open space
areas;
• Expanding opportunities for the City to pursue grants and other
funding sources for parks and infrastructure improvements.
What topics will the General Plan cover?
State law requires that each city in California adopt and maintain
an “up-to-date” General Plan and address specific core topics. The
Palmdale General Plan Update will cover these requirements but
will also address additional elements that are important to the
community. Topics will include land use; community design;
mobility; housing; equity, resilient, and healthy communities;
economic development; conservation and open space; parks and
recreation; historic and cultural resources; public facilities and
infrastructure; noise; air quality; sustainability; safety; military
readiness; and implementation.
