Is ZIP code 36032 safe? Honest data snapshot

ZIP code 36032 sits within Lowndes County, AL. 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.

Lowndes County reported a violent-crime rate of 155 per 100,000 residents and a property-crime rate of 146 per 100,000 in 2024, drawing on county-level agency submissions.

Based on just 16 reported violent incidents across a county population of 10,311, 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 36032 carries a Census-reported population of 2,408, ranking #3 of 6 ZIPs in Lowndes County, spread across 117.8 square miles (about 20 people per square mile). For a full breakdown of Lowndes County's crime categories and year-over-year trend, see the Lowndes County crime page linked below.
