What the 2023 FBI UCR record shows for Elko New Market, MN
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Elko New Market reported 0 violent offences in 2023 against a population of 5,128. 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
Elko New Market reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Minnesota cities
At 0.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2023, Elko New Market ranks 224 of 272 — above 0 of the 271 other Minnesota cities whose 2023 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -100.0% against the cohort median of 113.5. 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
Elko New Market's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Minnesota cohort
The nearest comparable 2023 records to Elko New Market's 0.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Adrian (0.0), Akeley (0.0), Arlington (0.0), Audubon (0.0). 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.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 0.0% of the 1 Part I offenses reported in Elko New Market for 2023, against a median of 11.8% across comparable Minnesota cities — a gap of 11.8 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 Elko New Market'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 0 reported violent incidents in a population of 5,126. 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.
