CrimeMapping.com has been developed to help City of Duncanville law enforcement provide the public with valuable information about recent crime activity in their neighborhood. Click the image above to view the latest updated information for Duncanville.
In 2019 the Duncanville Police Department changed the way it reports crime data to the FBI. The change was made due to Federal and State mandates. Texas House Bill 11 (HB11) of the 84th Regular Session introduced the requirement for Texas to begin its transition from a primarily Summary Reporting state to a NIBRS (National Incident Based Reporting System) state, by setting a goal for transition to NIBRS by 2019. The Duncanville Police Department met that goal by fully transitioning to NIBRS reporting on March 1, 2019.
