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 is 80.8% of reported property offenses in Edmond, against a cohort median of 66.1%. The remainder is burglary (208) and motor vehicle theft (51). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Position in the state cohort
At 165.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Edmond ranks 177 of 300 — above 123 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -22.5% against the cohort median of 213.2. 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 are 10.9% of the 1,510 Part I offenses reported in Edmond for 2024, against a median of 15.0% across comparable Oklahoma cities — a gap of 4.1 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.
