According to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program for 2024, Greensville County, VA agencies reported 19 violent and 68 property offenses. That equals about 167 violent and 597 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
Greensville County reported 19 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 11,391. 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.
2020–2024 direction
Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 114.1 per 100,000 in 2020 to 166.8 in 2024 (+46.2%). The highest observed value was 201.9 in 2021 and the lowest 114.1 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
At 166.8 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Greensville County ranks 27 of 94 — above 67 of the 93 other Virginia counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +31.1% against the cohort median of 127.2. 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 is 64.7% of reported property offenses in Greensville County, against a cohort median of 78.2%. The remainder is burglary (14) and motor vehicle theft (10). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 21.8% of the 87 Part I offenses reported in Greensville County for 2024, against a median of 16.6% across comparable Virginia counties — a gap of 5.2 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.
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.
