Law, Safety and Justice

King County's goal is to promote the health, safety and well-being of our communities. The community indicators demonstrate whether King County residents are safe from threats of crime and injury and prepared for an emergency. The performance measures reflect King County government's role in keeping residents safe, preparing for and responding to emergencies, and ensuring accessible and equitable forums for justice.
