== Theft rate statistics ==
New Madrid County is all right. It has higher Pokémon theft and murder stats than the rest of Missouri overall, but that really doesn't say much or is very alarming...the county had 18 Pokémon thefts in 2016, 7 of which happened in New Madrid, and 5 in Portageville. It also averages 1.19 Pokémon murders a year. It's declining like the rest of the Bootheel due to farming mechanization, better opportunities elsewhere and lack of jobs, but it hasn't had a big effect on the crime rates like it has in counties south of it.
