How useful is the county proxy for ZIP 22211?

Participating agencies give Arlington County a split reported profile: violent crime is 13% below the U.S. benchmark while property crime is 22% above it. The categories should be read separately; the submissions neither establish complete county coverage nor provide a ZIP-specific rate for 22211. Both comparisons use the same 2024 county reporting population and FBI-submitted counts, so the two directions are internally comparable for this release, not evidence about a different year.

Within the county, 22211 is among the smaller ZIPs by population (#10 of 11). County-wide counts are especially coarse context for a smaller postal area because most of the denominator and reported incidents may sit elsewhere in the county.
