What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Coffee County, TN

Position in the state cohort

Coffee County sits mid-pack among comparable Tennessee counties

At 196.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Coffee County ranks 29 of 92 — above 63 of the 91 other Tennessee counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +40.7% against the cohort median of 139.9. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.

Property-offense composition

Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort

Larceny-theft is 69.2% of reported property offenses in Coffee County, against a cohort median of 60.2%. The remainder is burglary (48) and motor vehicle theft (38). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.

2020–2024 direction

The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher

Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 181.4 per 100,000 in 2020 to 196.9 in 2024 (+8.6%). The highest observed value was 305.8 in 2021 and the lowest 162.4 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.

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.
