Based on 5 reported violent incidents in a population of 7,776. 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.

What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Geneseo Village, NY

2020–2024 direction

The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher

Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 12.3 per 100,000 in 2020 to 64.3 in 2024 (+422.8%). The highest observed value was 73.9 in 2022 and the lowest 12.3 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.

Small-count caution

The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable

Geneseo Village reported 5 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 7,776. 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

Geneseo Village's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the New York cohort

The nearest comparable 2024 records to Geneseo Village's 64.3 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Allegany Village (64.8), Norwood Village (65.1), Irvington Village (63.0), Chittenango Village (62.7). 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

Geneseo Village sits mid-pack among comparable New York cities

At 64.3 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Geneseo Village ranks 160 of 326 — above 166 of the 325 other New York cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +6.4% against the cohort median of 60.4. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.

Property counts dominate Geneseo Village'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 5 reported violent incidents in a population of 7,776. 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.
