ZIP 54741 settlement vs Eau Claire County
ZIP 54741 itself is about 20 people per Census sq mi across 96.5 sq mi (1,899 residents), a postal settlement fact independent of the county UCR proxy.
ZIP 54741 is about 1.8% of the county reporting population (1,899 of 105,710), so most of the denominator and submitted incidents sit outside this postal code.
Eau Claire County's 2024 UCR book concentrates in larceny-theft (66% of 104 offenses; mix index 4,920). ZIP 54741 inherits that county mix, not a postal-native split.
Settlement lines use Census ZCTA figures only; incomplete county agency coverage blocks any UCR mix or rate desk for this ZIP.
