Offense mix
Violent offenses are 100.0% of the 2 Part I offenses reported in Judith Basin County for 2024, against a median of 33.3% across comparable Montana counties — a gap of 66.7 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.
Small-count caution
Judith Basin County reported 2 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 2,023. 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.
Position in the state cohort
At 98.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Judith Basin County ranks 37 of 56 — above 19 of the 55 other Montana counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is -27.3% against the cohort median of 135.9. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
On a small-population county row, small denominators make rates swing on a handful of incidents. Figures are what agencies reported, not a neighbourhood safety grade. Census-matched rates appear only when the join exists.
