Incomplete FBI reporting for this county
Law-enforcement agencies serving Lucas County reported 40 violent and 501 property offences to the FBI for 2024 against a population of 431,279. Reporting to the UCR Program is voluntary, and figures this low for a population this size mean agencies did not submit complete data, not that little crime occurred. The numbers below are what was reported; they are not a measure of this county's crime level, and no safety grade is assigned from them.
Reporting completeness
FBI UCR participation is voluntary, and the 2024 submission covering Lucas County does not pass the completeness test this site applies for a population of 431,279. The counts below are shown because they are what agencies reported, but they are not treated here as the county’s crime level, and Lucas County is excluded from rankings and comparisons on this site for 2024.

On a very 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.
