ZIP 19555 settlement vs Berks County
ZIP 19555 itself is about 230 people per Census sq mi across 14.9 sq mi (3,436 residents), a postal settlement fact independent of the county UCR proxy.
ZIP 19555 is about 0.8% of the county reporting population (3,436 of 428,849), so most of the denominator and submitted incidents sit outside this postal code.
Berks County's 2024 UCR book concentrates in aggravated assault (100% of 4 offenses; mix index 10,000). ZIP 19555 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.
