Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Bee County reported 27 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 31,047. 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.
Property-offense composition
Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 50.0% of reported property offenses in Bee County, against a cohort median of 59.6%. The remainder is burglary (39) and motor vehicle theft (11). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
2021–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 96.6 per 100,000 in 2021 to 87.0 in 2024 (-10.0%). The highest observed value was 103.1 in 2022 and the lowest 87.0 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
Bee County sits mid-pack among comparable Texas counties
At 87.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Bee County ranks 104 of 231 — above 127 of the 230 other Texas counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +8.6% against the cohort median of 80.1. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Mid-size county rows still aggregate voluntary UCR submissions. Per-100,000 rates need a matched 2020 Census population; unmatched stay count-only. County-wide totals rarely describe any single town inside the line.
