Is ZIP code 54209 safe? Honest data snapshot

ZIP code 54209 sits within Door County, WI. 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.

Door County reported a violent-crime rate of 60 per 100,000 residents and a property-crime rate of 213 per 100,000 in 2024, drawing on county-level agency submissions.

Based on just 18 reported violent incidents across a county population of 30,066, 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 54209 carries a Census-reported population of 1,556, ranking #5 of 10 ZIPs in Door County, spread across 37.97 square miles (about 41 people per square mile). For a full breakdown of Door County's crime categories and year-over-year trend, see the Door County crime page linked below.
