Is ZIP code 31645 safe? Honest data snapshot

ZIP code 31645 sits within Berrien County, GA. The figures below are the county's own FBI UCR numbers for 2024, the most accurate available statistic for this location, not a ZIP-specific calculation.

Berrien County reported a violent-crime rate of 138 per 100,000 residents and a property-crime rate of 683 per 100,000 in 2024, drawing on county-level agency submissions.

Based on just 25 reported violent incidents across a county population of 18,160, 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 31645 carries a Census-reported population of 4,765, ranking #2 of 4 ZIPs in Berrien County, spread across 48.89 square miles (about 97 people per square mile). For a full breakdown of Berrien County's crime categories and year-over-year trend, see the Berrien County crime page linked below.
