What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Conewango Township, PA

2020–2024 direction

The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher

Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 120.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 541.0 in 2024 (+348.0%). The highest observed value was 541.0 in 2024 and the lowest 0.0 in 2021. 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

Conewango Township reported 18 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 3,327. 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.

Position in the state cohort

Conewango Township reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Pennsylvania cities

At 541.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Conewango Township ranks 34 of 838 — above 804 of the 837 other Pennsylvania cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +728.3% against the cohort median of 65.3. 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

Conewango Township's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Pennsylvania cohort

The nearest comparable 2024 records to Conewango Township's 541.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Ashley (536.8), Folcroft (536.0), Jeannette (550.7), York (530.1). 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 96.3% of reported property offenses in Conewango Township, against a cohort median of 85.8%. The remainder is burglary (4) and motor vehicle theft (0). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.

Offense mix

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

Violent offenses are 14.4% of the 125 Part I offenses reported in Conewango Township for 2024, against a median of 10.0% across comparable Pennsylvania cities — a gap of 4.4 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 Conewango 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.

Based on 18 reported violent incidents in a population of 3,327. 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.
