What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Greene County, MO
Position in the state cohort
Greene County reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Missouri counties
At 58.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Greene County ranks 62 of 77 — above 15 of the 76 other Missouri counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is -54.8% against the cohort median of 128.8. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
2021–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 48.2 per 100,000 in 2021 to 58.2 in 2024 (+20.8%). The highest observed value was 58.2 in 2024 and the lowest 31.1 in 2023. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property-offense composition
Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 49.9% of reported property offenses in Greene County, against a cohort median of 61.9%. The remainder is burglary (248) and motor vehicle theft (69). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 21.6% of the 807 Part I offenses reported in Greene County for 2024, against a median of 26.5% across comparable Missouri counties — a gap of 5.0 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 very 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.
