Coffee County, AL reported 49 violent crimes per 100,000 in FBI UCR 2024
According to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program for 2024, Coffee County, AL agencies reported 26 violent and 122 property offenses. That equals about 49 violent and 228 property crimes per 100,000 using a verified Census population join. Table 10 coverage is a voluntary subset of U.S. counties.
Small-count caution
Coffee County reported 26 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 53,465. 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.
2022–2024 direction
Across 3 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 65.5 per 100,000 in 2022 to 48.6 in 2024 (-25.7%). The highest observed value was 65.5 in 2022 and the lowest 48.6 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
At 48.6 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Coffee County ranks 38 of 56 — above 18 of the 55 other Alabama counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is -39.9% against the cohort median of 80.9. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 17.6% of the 148 Part I offenses reported in Coffee County for 2024, against a median of 21.6% across comparable Alabama counties — a gap of 4.0 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.
