Offense mix
Violent offenses are 47.9% of the 71 Part I offenses reported in Leavenworth County for 2024, against a median of 25.0% across comparable Kansas counties — a gap of 22.9 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.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 69.6 per 100,000 in 2020 to 41.5 in 2024 (-40.4%). The highest observed value was 69.6 in 2020 and the lowest 24.4 in 2023. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
At 41.5 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Leavenworth County ranks 52 of 70 — above 18 of the 69 other Kansas counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is -47.7% against the cohort median of 79.4. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft is 78.4% of reported property offenses in Leavenworth County, against a cohort median of 62.4%. The remainder is burglary (8) and motor vehicle theft (0). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
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.
