Lady Lake has its own city police department, so we rarely see any County Sheriff vehicle in our area. We do see the city police cars come through though, we're part of their routine patrols. Between the Community Watch and the Lady Lake police, we enjoy a lot less crime overall than that "online website" gives us credit for. Most stops stem from people who don't live here, being pulled over while driving through here on charges that have nothing to do with them being here at all. Mostly we just get trespassers, and the occasional drunken old guy making too much noise in the country club parking lot. We did have that one murder though.
The police are efficient and awesome. Community Watch is less efficient, but they do enjoy some efficiency. They're also less awesome, but they're better than average. They are not security guards, they're not paid to be security guards. They work in conjunction with the police to maintain a relatively peaceful and safe community here.
