What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Beeville, TX
Property-offense composition
Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 21.6% of reported property offenses in Beeville, against a cohort median of 71.6%. The remainder is burglary (271) and motor vehicle theft (12). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Comparable rate records
Beeville's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Texas cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Beeville's 367.3 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Weimar (367.0), Groves (367.7), Wallis (366.3), Converse (368.7). 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.
Position in the state cohort
Beeville reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Texas cities
At 367.3 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Beeville ranks 138 of 686 — above 548 of the 685 other Texas cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +105.2% against the cohort median of 178.9. 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
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 351.9 per 100,000 in 2020 to 367.3 in 2024 (+4.4%). The highest observed value was 550.8 in 2021 and the lowest 351.9 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property counts dominate Beeville'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.
Mid-size municipal totals above are reported offenses, not safety advice for any single block. Reporting completeness still varies by year and agency.
