Sarpy County, NE reported 14 violent crimes per 100,000 in FBI UCR 2024
According to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program for 2024, Sarpy County, NE agencies reported 27 violent and 679 property offenses. That equals about 14 violent and 356 property crimes per 100,000 using a verified Census population join. Table 10 coverage is a voluntary subset of U.S. counties.
Small-count caution
Sarpy County reported 27 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 190,604. 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.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 3.8% of the 706 Part I offenses reported in Sarpy County for 2024, against a median of 23.5% across comparable Nebraska counties — a gap of 19.7 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 14.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Sarpy County ranks 37 of 47 — above 10 of the 46 other Nebraska counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is -66.6% against the cohort median of 42.4. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Share of the state cohort
The 706 Part I offenses reported here are 27.3% of the 2,587 reported across all 47 comparable Nebraska counties in 2024. A county this large moves the statewide total on its own, so state-level changes should be read against its population of 190,604 rather than as a uniform shift.
2021–2024 direction
Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 19.4 per 100,000 in 2021 to 14.2 in 2024 (-27.0%). The highest observed value was 27.3 in 2022 and the lowest 12.1 in 2023. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
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.
