2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 191.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 233.2 in 2024 (+21.6%). The highest observed value was 299.4 in 2023 and the lowest 191.8 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
Grand Blanc Township sits mid-pack among comparable Michigan cities
At 233.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Grand Blanc Township ranks 149 of 366 — above 217 of the 365 other Michigan cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +24.7% against the cohort median of 187.0. 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 Grand Blanc Township'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.
Mid-size municipal totals above are reported offenses, not safety advice for any single block. Reporting completeness still varies by year and agency.
