Motor vehicle theft showed an inconsistent pattern. From 1 incident in 2010, it peaked at 5 in 2020 before dropping to 0 in 2022. The rate per 1,000 residents increased from 0.18 in 2010 to 0.89 in 2020, then fell to 0 in 2022. The city's contribution to state motor vehicle thefts reached a high of 0.03% in 2019 and 2020 before dropping to 0% in 2022. This fluctuation suggests varying effectiveness of vehicle security measures over time.

Arson cases were rare, with only one reported incident in 2020, representing 0.13% of state arsons that year. The rate per 1,000 residents was 0.18 in 2020. The scarcity of arson cases indicates it is not a significant concern for the community.

Examining correlations, there appears to be a relationship between property crime rates and population density. As population density decreased from 1,626 per square mile in 2010 to 1,551 in 2022, property crimes also declined. Additionally, the increase in median income from $48,815 in 2013 to $58,279 in 2022 coincided with the overall reduction in property crimes, suggesting a potential link between economic improvement and crime reduction.

Applying predictive models based on the current trends, it's projected that by 2029, property crime rates in Kimberling City will likely remain very low or at zero, assuming current socioeconomic conditions and law enforcement strategies persist.

The most significant discovery is the complete elimination of reported property crimes in Kimberling City by 2022. This remarkable achievement, coupled with the city's demographic changes, suggests a transformation in community safety. The correlation between rising median incomes and declining crime rates indicates that economic prosperity may play a role in crime reduction. Kimberling City's experience demonstrates that small communities can effectively combat property crime through a combination of economic growth, community engagement, and effective law enforcement strategies.
