Comparable rate records
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Frisco's 100.9 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Venus (101.0), Friendswood (100.6), Stamford (101.4), Lake Dallas (100.2). 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 100.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Frisco ranks 501 of 686 — above 185 of the 685 other Texas cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -43.9% against the cohort median of 179.9. 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 86.4% of reported property offenses in Frisco, against a cohort median of 71.6%. The remainder is burglary (159) and motor vehicle theft (158). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 9.1% of the 2,571 Part I offenses reported in Frisco for 2024, against a median of 14.4% across comparable Texas cities — a gap of 5.2 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.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 89.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 100.9 in 2024 (+12.3%). The highest observed value was 106.4 in 2022 and the lowest 89.8 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property counts dominate Frisco'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.
