Is ZIP code 98631 safe? Honest data snapshot
ZIP code 98631 sits within Pacific County, WA. 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.
Pacific County reported a violent-crime rate of 30 per 100,000 residents and a property-crime rate of 214 per 100,000 in 2024, drawing on county-level agency submissions.
Based on just 7 reported violent incidents across a county population of 23,365, 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 98631 carries a Census-reported population of 3,387, ranking #3 of 13 ZIPs in Pacific County, spread across 22.72 square miles (about 149 people per square mile). For a full breakdown of Pacific County's crime categories and year-over-year trend, see the Pacific County crime page linked below.
