Talked to some locals near Nashville and would like to clarify if Springfield is a dark spot for the northern Nashville areas.

Last I heard, Anderson County (Clinton, Oak Ridge) had the most meth lab seizures last year.

Robertson County, where Springfield is located, is not even in the top 15.

The two counties nearest to Middle TN with the most meth arrests were Putnam (Cookeville) and Warren (McMinnville).

McMinn County is in East Tennessee (Athens). McMinnville is in Warren County.

But back to the original question. Robertson County (Springfield) has only 4 on the meth registry. Putnam County has 110, Warrren County has 251.

Thanks for the catch, JMT. I mistyped, thinking about McMinnville and typing "McMinn County,"

I will edit my other post.

Um, no, McMinnville is definitely on the list. Warren County is #5.

Law enforcement in Springfield has been focusing on gangs.

Smokey Barn News is a local source of news for Robertson County:

They are based in Springfield. You can scroll through their news stories to get a feel for their crime issues.

Just because there aren't a lot of busts in a particular area doesn't necessarily mean they aren't a problem. A lot of arrests could simply mean the local law enforcement is more dedicated to cleaning up that particular problem.
