What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Conway County, AR

Position in the state cohort

Conway County sits mid-pack among comparable Arkansas counties

At 226.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Conway County ranks 25 of 71 — above 46 of the 70 other Arkansas counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +34.0% against the cohort median of 169.3. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.

2020–2024 direction

The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower

Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 270.3 per 100,000 in 2020 to 226.9 in 2024 (-16.1%). The highest observed value was 352.4 in 2022 and the lowest 183.4 in 2023. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.

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.
