What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Noxubee County, MS

Offense mix

Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix

Violent offenses are 46.8% of the 47 Part I offenses reported in Noxubee County for 2024, against a median of 19.8% across comparable Mississippi counties — a gap of 27.0 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

The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable

Noxubee County reported 22 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 10,285. 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

Noxubee County reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Mississippi counties

At 213.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Noxubee County ranks 7 of 43 — above 36 of the 42 other Mississippi counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +85.8% against the cohort median of 115.1. 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

Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort

Larceny-theft is 44.0% of reported property offenses in Noxubee County, against a cohort median of 57.4%. The remainder is burglary (6) and motor vehicle theft (8). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.

2021–2024 direction

The reported violent-crime rate ended the window close to where it started

Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 213.9 per 100,000 in 2021 to 213.9 in 2024 (+0.0%). The highest observed value was 213.9 in 2021 and the lowest 184.7 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.

Mid-size county rows still aggregate voluntary UCR submissions. Per-100,000 rates need a matched 2020 Census population; unmatched stay count-only. County-wide totals rarely describe any single town inside the line.
