Is ZIP code 68463 safe? Honest data snapshot

ZIP code 68463 sits within Cass County, NE. 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.

Cass County reported a violent-crime rate of 53 per 100,000 residents and a property-crime rate of 282 per 100,000 in 2024, drawing on county-level agency submissions.

Based on just 14 reported violent incidents across a county population of 26,598, 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 68463 carries a Census-reported population of 1,648, ranking #4 of 15 ZIPs in Cass County, spread across 57.87 square miles (about 28 people per square mile). For a full breakdown of Cass County's crime categories and year-over-year trend, see the Cass County crime page linked below.
