How useful is the county proxy for ZIP 22213?
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 22213. 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.
22213 is a densely settled part of the county at about 7,034 people per square mile. Density is not a crime predictor on its own; it only shows why a county-wide average can conceal a very different local setting inside this ZIP.
