Aggravated assault trends in Pinebluff have fluctuated over the years. In 2010, there was 1 reported aggravated assault, representing 0.01% of the state's total. With a population of 3,399, this equates to approximately 0.29 assaults per 1,000 people. In 2011, there were 2 aggravated assaults (0.02% of state total), or about 0.65 per 1,000 people. The years 2012-2017 saw no reported aggravated assaults. In 2018, there was again 1 reported assault (0.01% of state total), or about 0.29 per 1,000 people given the population of 3,469. This indicates a fluctuating but generally low rate of aggravated assaults in the city.

When examining correlations between violent crime trends and other factors, a notable relationship emerges with population density. As the population density increased from 1,299 per square mile in 2010 to 1,386 in 2022, there was a general trend of decreased violent crime, particularly evident in the years following 2011. This suggests that the increase in population density may have had a mitigating effect on violent crime rates.

Applying predictive models to forecast violent crime trends for the next five years (up to 2029), based on the historical data and current trends, it's projected that Pinebluff will likely continue to experience low levels of violent crime. The city may see occasional isolated incidents, particularly in categories like robbery or aggravated assault, but these are expected to remain infrequent and not show any significant upward trend.

In conclusion, Pinebluff has demonstrated a relatively stable and low violent crime rate over the examined period, with some fluctuations in specific categories like robbery and aggravated assault. The absence of reported murders and the generally low contribution to state crime percentages suggest that Pinebluff maintains a comparatively safe environment for its residents. The correlation between increasing population density and decreasing violent crime rates is a positive indicator for the city's future safety outlook.
