Locally, police personnel are often referred to as Kaka or Dada, though most people address them as Sir.

In the Nandurbar district, the perception of safety varies among residents. During the day, people generally feel secure and have a strong sense of trust within their communities. Children are allowed to play outside, and daily activities continue without major concerns. However, safety at night remains a significant issue, particularly for women and children. Many residents believe it is unsafe for women to step out after dark, even though serious crimes such as rape and theft are relatively uncommon.

While there is no single high-profile case that has deeply impacted public perception, the general caution around nighttime movement reflects an underlying concern for security. The community acknowledges the need for better policing and awareness to address these fears and ensure a greater sense of safety for all residents.

  • Data from District Statistical Abstracts comes in financial years, but is graphed below in calendar years (2015 in our graph means FY 2015-16).
  • The District Statistical Abstracts are in Marathi. Translations were done carefully, but some titles or details may differ. There may be some data entry errors. Please report any issues you find.
  • Sometimes districts without data may show empty graphs. We've removed them but let us know if any remain.
  • Some graphs may not render correctly. A hard refresh (Ctrl/Command +Shift +R) usually fixes this.
