Laramie County, WY reported 53 violent crimes per 100,000 in FBI UCR 2024
According to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program for 2024, Laramie County, WY agencies reported 53 violent and 268 property offenses. That equals about 53 violent and 267 property crimes per 100,000 using a verified Census population join. Table 10 coverage is a voluntary subset of U.S. counties.
Share of the state cohort
The 321 Part I offenses reported here are 32.1% of the 1,000 reported across all 19 comparable Wyoming counties in 2024. A county this large moves the statewide total on its own, so state-level changes should be read against its population of 100,512 rather than as a uniform shift.
Position in the state cohort
At 52.7 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Laramie County ranks 5 of 19 — above 14 of the 18 other Wyoming counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +71.2% against the cohort median of 30.8. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 82.6 per 100,000 in 2020 to 52.7 in 2024 (-36.1%). The highest observed value was 82.6 in 2020 and the lowest 27.9 in 2023. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
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.

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. Statewide comparisons draw on the state UCR program. Verify with FBI.gov UCR and Census.gov QuickFacts.
