About property crime rate

What this measures: Counts burglary, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft, expressed per 100,000 residents.

Why it matters: Property crime affects daily decisions like leaving a car unlocked, buying insurance, and where small businesses choose to set up.

Watch out: Same UCR-to-NIBRS methodology break as violent crime: comparisons across 2020 to 2021 are not apples-to-apples.
