What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Corry, PA
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Corry reported 10 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 6,034. 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
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 389.3 per 100,000 in 2020 to 165.7 in 2024 (-57.4%). The highest observed value was 444.2 in 2023 and the lowest 65.3 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Comparable rate records
Corry's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Pennsylvania cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Corry's 165.7 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Morrisville (165.4), Latrobe (165.0), Shenango Township, Mercer County (166.5), Bally (164.3). 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
Corry reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Pennsylvania cities
At 165.7 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Corry ranks 185 of 838 — above 653 of the 837 other Pennsylvania cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +153.7% 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.
Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 16.9% of the 59 Part I offenses reported in Corry for 2024, against a median of 10.0% across comparable Pennsylvania cities — a gap of 6.9 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-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 95.9% of reported property offenses in Corry, against a cohort median of 85.8%. The remainder is burglary (2) and motor vehicle theft (0). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Property counts dominate Corry'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 10 reported violent incidents in a population of 6,034. 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.
