Position in the state cohort
At 72.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Fishers ranks 84 of 113 — above 29 of the 112 other Indiana cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -54.8% against the cohort median of 161.0. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 64.6 per 100,000 in 2020 to 72.9 in 2024 (+12.7%). The highest observed value was 103.6 in 2023 and the lowest 64.6 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 10.0% of the 773 Part I offenses reported in Fishers for 2024, against a median of 13.6% across comparable Indiana cities — a gap of 3.6 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 Fishers'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.
