At 297.1 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Anne Arundel County ranks 2 of 19 — above 17 of the 18 other Maryland counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator.

Share of the state cohort
Anne Arundel County carries a large share of the reporting cohort’s total offenses
The 12,863 Part I offenses reported here are 29.5% of the 43,641 reported across all 19 comparable Maryland counties in 2024. A county this large moves the statewide total on its own, so state-level changes should be read against its population of 588,261 rather than as a uniform shift.
On a very large county row, county figures aggregate every participating agency inside the county. Participation is voluntary. Per-100,000 rates use a separately matched 2020 U.S. Census county population, never a Table 10 field; unmatched counties stay count-only. A large county line encloses very different communities.
