The verdict
Cinnaminson Township earns a B safety grade: violent crime runs 71% below the U.S. average, placing it safer than most U.S. cities.
Based on 18 reported violent incidents in a population of 17,639. 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-count caution
Cinnaminson Township reported 18 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 17,639. 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.
2020–2024 direction
Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 60.9 per 100,000 in 2020 to 102.0 in 2024 (+67.7%). The highest observed value was 120.0 in 2023 and the lowest 34.7 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Comparable rate records
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Cinnaminson Township's 102.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Little Falls Township (101.6), South Brunswick Township (101.1), Avon-by-the-Sea (103.4), Hightstown (100.5). 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 102.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Cinnaminson Township ranks 155 of 417 — above 262 of the 416 other New Jersey cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +49.7% against the cohort median of 68.1. 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
Larceny-theft is 72.9% of reported property offenses in Cinnaminson Township, against a cohort median of 82.1%. The remainder is burglary (72) and motor vehicle theft (25). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Property counts dominate Cinnaminson Township'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.
