Rincon, GA carries a PlainCrime A safety grade with violent crime 76% below the U.S. average
According to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program for 2024, Rincon, GA shows violent crime at 84.5 per 100,000 residents and property crime at 532.4 per 100,000. Violent crime runs 76% below the U.S. average. PlainCrime assigns grade A from those rates. Figures are voluntary agency submissions joined to population denominators; incomplete coverage can move the number.
Small-count caution
Rincon reported 10 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 11,833. At this volume one additional or one fewer report moves the per-100,000 rate noticeably, so the figure is better read as a data point than as a precise measurement, and year-to-year swings here are expected.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 228.0 per 100,000 in 2020 to 84.5 in 2024 (-62.9%). The highest observed value was 228.0 in 2020 and the lowest 52.8 in 2023. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Comparable rate records
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Rincon's 84.5 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Boston (82.1), Bowdon (89.7), Jasper (75.5), Milton (93.7). These are same-year agency submissions that pass the same completeness screen, not a claim that the cities have identical conditions. They make the cohort position above checkable against named records instead of a generic state average.
Position in the state cohort
At 84.5 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Rincon ranks 140 of 186 — above 46 of the 185 other Georgia cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -58.3% against the cohort median of 202.7. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Property counts dominate Rincon's FBI UCR Table 8 municipal row. Per-100,000 rates use the reporting-year population on that row; cities that fail the completeness test stay out of rate rankings. A citywide figure rarely describes any single neighbourhood inside the municipal boundary.
Based on 10 reported violent incidents in a population of 11,833. At this volume, one additional or one fewer report can shift the rate and letter grade noticeably; small-city crime counts are inherently more volatile year to year than large-city counts, so treat this grade as a data point, not a precise ranking.
