Isanti County, MN reported 51 violent crimes per 100,000 in FBI UCR 2024
According to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program for 2024, Isanti County, MN agencies reported 21 violent and 106 property offenses. That equals about 51 violent and 258 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
Isanti County reported 21 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 41,135. 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 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 80.2 per 100,000 in 2020 to 51.1 in 2024 (-36.4%). The highest observed value was 80.2 in 2020 and the lowest 43.8 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
At 51.1 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Isanti County ranks 34 of 80 — above 46 of the 79 other Minnesota counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +9.3% against the cohort median of 46.7. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 16.5% of the 127 Part I offenses reported in Isanti County for 2024, against a median of 19.8% across comparable Minnesota counties — a gap of 3.2 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.

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.
