What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Akron Village, NY

Small-count caution

The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable

Akron Village reported 1 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 2,874. At this volume one additional or one fewer report moves the per-100,000 rate noticeably, so the figure is better read as a data point than as a precise measurement, and year-to-year swings here are expected.

Offense mix

Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix

Violent offenses are 33.3% of the 3 Part I offenses reported in Akron Village for 2024, against a median of 6.8% across comparable New York cities — a gap of 26.5 points. Offense mix is shaped by which agencies report and how incidents are classified as well as by the underlying offenses, so it describes the reported record rather than a settled difference in conditions.

Comparable rate records

Akron Village's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the New York cohort

The nearest comparable 2024 records to Akron Village's 34.8 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Tarrytown Village (34.3), Brookville (33.9), Piermont Village (36.2), Sands Point Village (36.5). These are same-year agency submissions that pass the same completeness screen, not a claim that the cities have identical conditions. They make the cohort position above checkable against named records instead of a generic state average.

Position in the state cohort

Akron Village sits mid-pack among comparable New York cities

At 34.8 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Akron Village ranks 207 of 326 — above 119 of the 325 other New York cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -43.3% against the cohort median of 61.3. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.

Property-offense composition

Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort

Larceny-theft is 100.0% of reported property offenses in Akron Village, against a cohort median of 86.3%. The remainder is burglary (0) and motor vehicle theft (0). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.

Property counts dominate Akron Village's FBI UCR Table 8 municipal row. Per-100,000 rates use the reporting-year population on that row; cities that fail the completeness test stay out of rate rankings. A citywide figure rarely describes any single neighbourhood inside the municipal boundary.

Based on 1 reported violent incidents in a population of 2,874. At this volume, one additional or one fewer report can shift the rate and letter grade noticeably; small-city crime counts are inherently more volatile year to year than large-city counts, so treat this grade as a data point, not a precise ranking.

Small-city offense counts above are voluntary UCR submissions, not neighbourhood advice. Year-to-year swings can look large when the population base is modest.
