Position in the state cohort
At 529.8 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Coffeyville ranks 12 of 125 — above 113 of the 124 other Kansas cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +179.2% against the cohort median of 189.7. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Comparable rate records
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Coffeyville's 529.8 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Iola (529.1), Chanute (525.2), Concordia (522.4), Independence (522.0). 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.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 621.5 per 100,000 in 2020 to 529.8 in 2024 (-14.8%). The highest observed value was 683.9 in 2021 and the lowest 529.8 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 16.9% of the 266 Part I offenses reported in Coffeyville for 2024, against a median of 13.8% across comparable Kansas cities — a gap of 3.2 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 Coffeyville'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.
