Is ZIP code 36455 safe? Honest data snapshot
ZIP code 36455 sits within Covington 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.
Covington County reported a violent-crime rate of 3 per 100,000 residents and a property-crime rate of 21 per 100,000 in 2024, drawing on county-level agency submissions.
Based on just 1 reported violent incidents across a county population of 37,570, 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 36455 carries a Census-reported population of 304, ranking #8 of 10 ZIPs in Covington County, spread across 0.7 square miles (about 434 people per square mile).
