What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Bartow County, GA
Position in the state cohort
Bartow County reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Georgia counties
At 58.8 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Bartow County ranks 75 of 94 — above 19 of the 93 other Georgia counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is -47.2% against the cohort median of 111.4. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 92.7 per 100,000 in 2020 to 58.8 in 2024 (-36.6%). The highest observed value was 139.6 in 2023 and the lowest 58.8 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 6.5% of the 986 Part I offenses reported in Bartow County for 2024, against a median of 16.9% across comparable Georgia counties — a gap of 10.4 points. Offense mix is shaped by which agencies report and how incidents are classified as well as by the underlying offenses, so it describes the reported record rather than a settled difference in conditions.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 77.1% of reported property offenses in Bartow County, against a cohort median of 67.8%. The remainder is burglary (112) and motor vehicle theft (99). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
On a 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.
