ZIP 14081 settlement vs Erie County
ZIP 14081 itself is about 91 people per Census sq mi across 32 sq mi (2,910 residents), a postal settlement fact independent of the county UCR proxy.
ZIP 14081 is about 0.3% of the county reporting population (2,910 of 954,236), so most of the denominator and submitted incidents sit outside this postal code.
Erie County's 2024 UCR book concentrates in larceny-theft (74% of 605 offenses; mix index 5,706). ZIP 14081 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.
