Small-count caution
East Fishkill Town reported 8 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 29,607. 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
The nearest comparable 2024 records to East Fishkill Town's 27.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Garden City Village (26.3), Tuckahoe Village (29.2), Waterford Town and Village (24.8), Bedford Town (24.7). 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 40.6 per 100,000 in 2020 to 27.0 in 2024 (-33.4%). The highest observed value was 53.6 in 2023 and the lowest 20.3 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
At 27.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, East Fishkill Town ranks 219 of 326 — above 107 of the 325 other New York cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -55.9% against the cohort median of 61.3. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Property counts dominate East Fishkill Town'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 8 reported violent incidents in a population of 29,607. 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.
Mid-size municipal totals above are reported offenses, not safety advice for any single block. Reporting completeness still varies by year and agency.
