Position in the state cohort
Garland County reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Arkansas counties
At 321.4 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Garland County ranks 6 of 71 — above 65 of the 70 other Arkansas counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +89.8% 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.
Property-offense composition
Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 49.0% of reported property offenses in Garland County, against a cohort median of 63.5%. The remainder is burglary (344) and motor vehicle theft (125). 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 294.5 per 100,000 in 2020 to 321.4 in 2024 (+9.2%). The highest observed value was 359.4 in 2021 and the lowest 294.5 in 2020. 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.

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. Statewide comparisons draw on the state UCR program. Verify with FBI.gov UCR and Census.gov QuickFacts.
County Table 10 totals are voluntary agency filings: incomplete coverage is not a county crime measure, and a countywide figure is not a neighbourhood verdict.
