Frisco City, AL is among the highest-crime cities in the country, and earns a C PlainCrime safety grade, where violent crime runs 28% above the U.S. average
According to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program for 2024, Frisco City, AL shows violent crime at 450.5 per 100,000 residents and property crime at 360.4 per 100,000. Violent crime runs 28% above the U.S. average. PlainCrime assigns grade C from those rates. Figures are voluntary agency submissions joined to population denominators; incomplete coverage can move the number.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 55.6% of the 9 Part I offenses reported in Frisco City for 2024, against a median of 13.8% across comparable Alabama cities — a gap of 41.7 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.
Small-count caution
Frisco City reported 5 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 1,110. 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 Frisco City's 450.5 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Elba (451.1), Addison (448.4), Brookwood (454.5), Ranburne (459.8). 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
At 450.5 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Frisco City ranks 73 of 263 — above 190 of the 262 other Alabama cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +111.0% against the cohort median of 213.5. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft is 50.0% of reported property offenses in Frisco City, against a cohort median of 74.5%. 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.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 439.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 450.5 in 2024 (+2.4%). The highest observed value was 711.1 in 2023 and the lowest 346.0 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Frisco City's FBI UCR Table 8 municipal row keeps violent and property totals in a closer balance. Per-100,000 rates use the reporting-year population on that row; incomplete reporters stay out of rate rankings. A citywide figure rarely describes any single neighbourhood inside the municipal boundary.
Based on 5 reported violent incidents in a population of 1,110. 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.
On a small municipal row, small denominators make rates sensitive to a handful of incidents. Figures are reported totals, not neighbourhood advice.
