2024 reported record
Of the 1,722 Part I offences Kauai County reported for 2024, 12.5% were violent. Aggravated assault leads the violent categories at 141, and larceny-theft leads the property categories at 1,182, against a population of 73,298. Hawaii has too few counties with a comparable 2024 submission to place this record against an in-state cohort, so it is reported on its own terms.
On a 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.
