What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Bloomfield Hills, MI
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 49.9 per 100,000 in 2020 to 114.8 in 2024 (+130.3%). The highest observed value was 160.8 in 2023 and the lowest 49.9 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Bloomfield Hills reported 5 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 4,356. 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
Bloomfield Hills's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Michigan cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Bloomfield Hills's 114.8 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Hampton Township (115.4), Troy (115.5), Chesterfield Township (113.9), Tecumseh (116.7). 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
Bloomfield Hills sits mid-pack among comparable Michigan cities
At 114.8 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Bloomfield Hills ranks 239 of 366 — above 127 of the 365 other Michigan cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -39.0% against the cohort median of 188.3. 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
Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 65.4% of reported property offenses in Bloomfield Hills, against a cohort median of 79.7%. The remainder is burglary (7) and motor vehicle theft (2). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Property counts dominate Bloomfield Hills'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 5 reported violent incidents in a population of 4,356. 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.
