Robbery trends show a general decline over the period. In 2010, there were 9 robberies, representing 0.12% of the state's total. By 2022, this had decreased to just 1 robbery, or 0.03% of the state's total. The robbery rate per 1,000 people decreased from 0.85 in 2010 to 0.10 in 2022, indicating a substantial improvement in this area of public safety.

Aggravated assault, which constitutes the majority of violent crimes in the city, has shown fluctuations but an overall decreasing trend. In 2010, there were 20 aggravated assaults (0.10% of the state's total), which decreased to 13 in 2022 (0.06% of the state's total). The rate per 1,000 people decreased slightly from 1.89 in 2010 to 1.31 in 2022, suggesting a marginal improvement in public safety regarding this crime category.

Examining correlations, there appears to be a moderate relationship between population density and violent crime rates. As the population density decreased from 2,811 per square mile in 2010 to 2,631 per square mile in 2022, there was a corresponding decrease in overall violent crime incidents. Additionally, there seems to be a weak correlation between the slight increase in racial diversity and crime rates. The percentage of white residents decreased from 96% in 2019 to 93% in 2022, while the percentage of residents identifying as two or more races increased from 0% to 3% during the same period.

Applying predictive models based on the observed trends, it's projected that by 2029 (five years from now), Rogersville may experience a further reduction in violent crimes. The model suggests that total violent crimes could decrease to approximately 8-10 incidents per year, with robberies potentially becoming rare occurrences and aggravated assaults likely to remain the primary concern, albeit at lower levels than current figures.

In conclusion, Rogersville has demonstrated a positive trend in reducing violent crime over the past decade, particularly in robberies and aggravated assaults. The consistent absence of murders and the low incidence of rapes contribute to a generally improving public safety profile. These trends, coupled with demographic shifts and population changes, suggest that the city is moving towards a safer environment for its residents, with violent crime rates expected to continue their downward trajectory in the coming years.
