Groveland Florida

Groveland, Florida has recorded 62 homicides over the tracked period, with 71 victims identified. Tracking continues through 2026. The city ranks #68 among 339 U.S. cities tracked by the FBI, with a clearance rate of 13% — meaning an arrest or suspect identification was made in 8 of those incidents, while 38 remain open. The weapon mix skews toward firearm - handguns (roughly 44% of cases with weapon data), with firearm - type unknown, knife/cutting instrument as the next-most-frequent categories. The single deadliest month on record was January 2022, with 9 homicides logged. Reporting is dominated by Groveland Police Department, which filed 62 incident reports. The annual homicide count runs near the per-city average for the FBI's tracking universe. Florida's statewide firearms policy — "Stand Your Ground" and permitless carry — is part of the regulatory backdrop for the local dynamic, even as the city-level pattern is shaped most directly by community-level conditions and the broader opioid and fentanyl crisis.
