What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Talbot County, GA

Small-count caution

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

Talbot County reported 9 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 5,733. 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

Talbot County sits mid-pack among comparable Georgia counties

At 157.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Talbot County ranks 26 of 94 — above 68 of the 93 other Georgia counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +42.0% against the cohort median of 110.6. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.

Offense mix

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

Violent offenses are 20.5% of the 44 Part I offenses reported in Talbot County for 2024, against a median of 16.8% across comparable Georgia counties — a gap of 3.7 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.

Small-county UCR rows are especially sensitive to which agencies filed. Per-100,000 rates use a matched 2020 Census population when available; otherwise counts only. Do not treat the county total as a town-level crime level.
