What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Bulloch County, GA
Position in the state cohort
Bulloch County reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Georgia counties
At 34.5 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Bulloch County ranks 85 of 94 — above 9 of the 93 other Georgia counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is -69.0% 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.
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Bulloch County reported 28 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 81,099. 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.
2021–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 3 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 29.6 per 100,000 in 2021 to 34.5 in 2024 (+16.7%). The highest observed value was 38.2 in 2023 and the lowest 29.6 in 2021. 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 11.2% of the 251 Part I offenses reported in Bulloch County for 2024, against a median of 16.9% across comparable Georgia counties — a gap of 5.7 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.
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.
