According to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program for 2024, Antlers, OK shows violent crime at 503.4 per 100,000 residents and property crime at 2,746 per 100,000.

Figures are voluntary agency submissions joined to population denominators; incomplete coverage can move the number.
Small-count caution
Antlers reported 11 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 2,185. 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.
Comparable rate records
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Antlers's 503.4 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Shawnee (500.5), Sallisaw (506.4), Cyril (507.0), Kiowa (499.2). 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
At 503.4 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Antlers ranks 44 of 300 — above 256 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +137.0% 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.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 389.9 per 100,000 in 2020 to 503.4 in 2024 (+29.1%). The highest observed value was 503.4 in 2024 and the lowest 87.5 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft is 85.0% of reported property offenses in Antlers, against a cohort median of 66.1%. The remainder is burglary (5) and motor vehicle theft (4). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Property counts dominate Antlers'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 11 reported violent incidents in a population of 2,185. 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.
On a small municipal row, small denominators make rates sensitive to a handful of incidents. Figures are reported totals, not neighbourhood advice.
