Position in the state cohort
At 605.6 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Anadarko ranks 29 of 300 — above 271 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +185.1% against the cohort median of 212.4. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Comparable rate records
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Anadarko's 605.6 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Mounds (611.0), Beggs (588.2), Cherokee (625.9), Stilwell (579.7). 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.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 957.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 605.6 in 2024 (-36.8%). The highest observed value was 1214.4 in 2023 and the lowest 605.6 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 19.4% of the 170 Part I offenses reported in Anadarko for 2024, against a median of 15.0% across comparable Oklahoma cities — a gap of 4.4 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.
Property counts dominate Anadarko'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.
