Position in the state cohort
Yuba County reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable California counties
At 440.1 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Yuba County ranks 6 of 56 — above 50 of the 55 other California counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +278.0% against the cohort median of 116.4. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 313.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 440.1 in 2024 (+40.2%). The highest observed value was 440.1 in 2024 and the lowest 229.2 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 42.6% of the 842 Part I offenses reported in Yuba County for 2024, against a median of 29.6% across comparable California counties — a gap of 13.1 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.
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.
