ZIP Code 30677

Is ZIP code 30677 safe? Honest data snapshot

ZIP code 30677 sits within Oconee County, GA. The FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program does not publish crime statistics by ZIP code, crime is reported by individual law-enforcement agencies, which don't align with postal-code boundaries. The figures below are Oconee County's own FBI UCR numbers for 2024, the most accurate available statistic for this location, not a ZIP-specific calculation.

Oconee County reported a violent-crime rate of 67 per 100,000 residents and a property-crime rate of 1,223 per 100,000 in 2024, drawing on county-level agency submissions.

Based on just 28 reported violent incidents across a county population of 41,799, this count is too low to support a reliable per-100K rate comparison. It may reflect a genuinely low-crime county, or it may reflect incomplete agency-level reporting to the FBI UCR Program for this county and year, small county-level counts are common in FBI Table 10 and should be treated as a data point, not a precise safety ranking.

ZIP 30677 itself has a Census-reported population of 20,833, spread across 122.23 square miles (about 170 people per square mile). For a full breakdown of Oconee County's crime categories and year-over-year trend, see the Oconee County crime page linked below.

Why not a ZIP-native rate? ZIP codes are a postal delivery construct, not a law-enforcement jurisdiction. The FBI UCR Program collects data from police departments and sheriff's offices, which report by agency and county, never by postal code. Any site claiming a precise "ZIP code crime rate" is deriving it the same way this page does, from the containing county or a nearby agency, whether or not they disclose it.

This page's county attribution comes from the U.S. Census Bureau's 2020 ZCTA-to-county relationship file, which maps every ZIP Code Tabulation Area to the county or counties its land area overlaps. A handful of ZIP codes straddle more than one county line; where that happens, this page attributes the ZIP to whichever county holds the larger share of its land area, the standard plurality-allocation approach used across public-data reference sites. Some U.S. territories and a small number of ZIP codes in states with limited county government (Connecticut, Rhode Island, and a few others) aren't yet covered by this crosswalk and don't have a page here.
