What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Henrico County, VA
Position in the state cohort
Henrico County reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Virginia counties
At 171.7 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Henrico County ranks 23 of 94 — above 71 of the 93 other Virginia counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +34.9% 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.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 7.7% of the 7,413 Part I offenses reported in Henrico County for 2024, against a median of 16.9% across comparable Virginia counties — a gap of 9.1 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.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 87.4% of reported property offenses in Henrico County, against a cohort median of 78.2%. The remainder is burglary (359) and motor vehicle theft (501). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
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.
