Is ZIP code 79772 safe? Honest data snapshot

ZIP code 79772 sits within Reeves County, TX. 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.

Reeves County reported a violent-crime rate of 81 per 100,000 residents and a property-crime rate of 1,329 per 100,000 in 2024, drawing on county-level agency submissions.

Based on just 12 reported violent incidents across a county population of 14,748, 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 79772 carries a Census-reported population of 13,305, ranking #1 of 5 ZIPs in Reeves County, spread across 1,048.83 square miles (about 13 people per square mile). For a full breakdown of Reeves County's crime categories and year-over-year trend, see the Reeves County crime page linked below.
