Based on 1 reported violent incidents in a population of 1,086. 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.

What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Boley, OK

Small-count caution

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

Boley reported 1 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 1,086. 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

Boley's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Oklahoma cohort

The nearest comparable 2024 records to Boley's 92.1 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Collinsville (92.2), Fairland (90.4), Marlow (88.3), Rush Springs (98.8). 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.

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 Boley, against a cohort median of 66.1%. 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.

Position in the state cohort

Boley sits mid-pack among comparable Oklahoma cities

At 92.1 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Boley ranks 224 of 300 — above 76 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -56.8% against the cohort median of 213.2. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.

Offense mix

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

Violent offenses are 25.0% of the 4 Part I offenses reported in Boley for 2024, against a median of 15.0% across comparable Oklahoma cities — a gap of 10.0 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 Boley'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 1,086. 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.
