Where these numbers come from
- Source: the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting program, as reported by the Barry County Sheriff's Office for the 2024 collection year. Retrieved June 2026.
- Denominator: every rate on this page is the reported count divided by 46,252 residents — the population the FBI publishes for this agency's jurisdiction in 2024 — then multiplied by 100,000. The underlying counts are 58 violent and 280 property offenses. Census population estimates for the same place differ from the FBI's by a small margin, so a rate computed from Census figures will not match this one exactly.
- Limits: agencies report voluntarily and their record-keeping practices differ, so comparisons between places are approximate. These are offenses reported to police — not convictions, and not incidents that went unreported. Figures cover the agency's whole jurisdiction and say nothing about any particular street or address.
- What we don't do: we publish these counts as data and never use them to rank, score or recommend places, and never to describe who lives anywhere.
