What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Grand Chute, WI
Comparable rate records
Grand Chute's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Wisconsin cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Grand Chute's 233.6 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Ashwaubenon (235.4), Oshkosh (231.8), Poynette (235.8), Fort Atkinson (236.3). 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
Grand Chute reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Wisconsin cities
At 233.6 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Grand Chute ranks 43 of 222 — above 179 of the 221 other Wisconsin cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +118.2% against the cohort median of 107.1. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 5.0% of the 1,134 Part I offenses reported in Grand Chute for 2024, against a median of 12.1% across comparable Wisconsin cities — a gap of 7.0 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
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 246.0 per 100,000 in 2020 to 233.6 in 2024 (-5.0%). The highest observed value was 310.0 in 2022 and the lowest 189.6 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property counts dominate Grand Chute'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.
