How useful is the county proxy for ZIP 38676?

Within the participating-agency records for Tunica County, reported violent and property crime rates both sit above their U.S. benchmarks: violent crime is 48% above and property crime is 129% above. The two submitted measures point in the same direction, but they do not establish complete county coverage or locate crime inside ZIP 38676. 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.

38676 is comparatively spread out at about 33 people per square mile. That settlement pattern may differ sharply from the county's population centers, another reason to use the county rates as regional context rather than a local estimate.
