Position in the state cohort
Tipton County sits mid-pack among comparable Tennessee counties
At 182.1 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Tipton County ranks 32 of 92 — above 60 of the 91 other Tennessee counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator.

Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 36.6% of the 303 Part I offenses reported in Tipton County for 2024, against a median of 28.8% across comparable Tennessee counties — a gap of 7.8 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.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 221.4 per 100,000 in 2020 to 182.1 in 2024 (-17.8%). The highest observed value was 221.4 in 2020 and the lowest 137.8 in 2022. 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.
