ZIP 05088 settlement vs Windsor County

ZIP 05088 itself is about 1,923 people per Census sq mi across 0.4 sq mi (827 residents), a postal settlement fact independent of the county UCR proxy.

ZIP 05088 is about 1.4% of the county reporting population (827 of 57,753), so most of the denominator and submitted incidents sit outside this postal code.

Windsor County's 2024 UCR book concentrates in larceny-theft (60% of 5 offenses; mix index 4,400). ZIP 05088 inherits that county mix, not a postal-native split.

Settlement lines use Census ZCTA figures only; incomplete county agency coverage blocks any UCR mix or rate desk for this ZIP.
