Partial agency coverage
Incomplete FBI reporting for this county
Law-enforcement agencies serving Boyle County reported
0 violent and
21 property offences to the FBI for 2024 against a population of 30,614. Reporting to the
UCR Program is voluntary, and figures this low for a population this size mean agencies did
not submit complete data, not that little crime occurred. The numbers below are what was
reported; they are not a measure of this county's crime level, and no safety grade is
assigned from them.
What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Boyle County, KY
Reporting completeness
The reported totals here are too incomplete to describe this county’s crime level
FBI UCR participation is voluntary, and the 2024 submission covering Boyle County does not pass the completeness test this site applies for a population of 30,614. The counts below are shown because they are what agencies reported, but they are not treated here as the county’s crime level, and Boyle County is excluded from rankings and comparisons on this site for 2024.
2021–2023 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 3 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 3.3 per 100,000 in 2021 to 29.4 in 2023 (+800.0%). The highest observed value was 29.4 in 2023 and the lowest 3.3 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Boyle County reported 0 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 30,614. 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.
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.

FBI Table 10 supplies county offense counts but no resident population. Where this page shows a per-100,000 rate, the denominator is a separately matched 2020 U.S. Census Bureau county population; unmatched county rows remain count-only.
