What is the crime rate in Warren County?
Over 2021-2025, the county's police agencies sent the FBI reports of about 129 violent and 784 property crimes per year. The violent rate, 6.4 per 1,000 people, is about 2.8 times the Mississippi rate (2.3); nationally it is 3.7. Burglary, theft and car theft together come to 38.9 per 1,000 residents, compared with 15.9 across Mississippi. Only about 47% of residents live in areas whose police reported a full year, so treat the rate with care. Most violent crimes here are aggravated assaults (76%). CDC death records show about 8 homicide deaths a year in the county (18.0 per 100,000), a count that includes cases police may classify differently.
| Offense (yearly average, 2021-2025) | Warren County | Per 1,000 | Mississippi per 1,000 | U.S. per 1,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Murder | 4 | 0.20 | 0.08 | 0.06 |
| Rape | 8 | 0.40 | 0.33 | 0.40 |

| Motor vehicle theft | 90 | 4.5 | 1.7 | 2.6 |
Most crime never reaches the police, so these are reported crimes, a floor rather than the full count. In 2024 about half of violent crimes (48%) and about 3 in 10 property crimes (31%) were reported to police (U.S. Justice Department, National Crime Victimization Survey). Rates also depend on how completely each agency reports to the FBI. County figures add up the city police and sheriff reports in the county (1 agencies; 47% of residents covered).
