Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft is 82.1% of reported property offenses in Queen Anne's County, against a cohort median of 72.3%. The remainder is burglary (38) and motor vehicle theft (11). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 13.3% of the 316 Part I offenses reported in Queen Anne's County for 2024, against a median of 16.6% across comparable Maryland counties — a gap of 3.3 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.
Position in the state cohort
At 84.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Queen Anne's County ranks 10 of 19 — above 9 of the 18 other Maryland counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is -6.4% against the cohort median of 90.0. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
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.
