Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 28.1% of the 491 Part I offenses reported in Prince George County for 2024, against a median of 16.6% across comparable Virginia counties — a gap of 11.5 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.
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.
