What stands out in Jefferson County

Data from Polco GPAL
Standouts compare Jefferson County with communities in Indiana or of similar population size. Surprises are where the measured figure was unusually far from what Polco's model expected. Each fact gives its year; public data runs one to two years behind.

In 2019, Jefferson County was more favorable than communities of similar population size on property crime rate.
