Is ZIP code 67601 safe? Honest data snapshot

ZIP code 67601 sits within Ellis County, KS. 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.

Ellis County reported a violent-crime rate of 55 per 100,000 residents and a property-crime rate of 159 per 100,000 in 2024, drawing on county-level agency submissions.

Based on just 16 reported violent incidents across a county population of 28,934, 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 67601 is the largest ZIP in Ellis County by population, 24,045 residents (#1 of 8 county ZIPs), across 359.81 square miles (67/sq mi). For a full breakdown of Ellis County's crime categories and year-over-year trend, see the Ellis County crime page linked below.
