Based on 6 reported violent incidents in a population of 896. 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 Grandfield, OK
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 216.9 per 100,000 in 2020 to 669.6 in 2024 (+208.7%). The highest observed value was 669.6 in 2024 and the lowest 108.5 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 75.0% of the 8 Part I offenses reported in Grandfield for 2024, against a median of 15.0% across comparable Oklahoma cities — a gap of 60.0 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.
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Grandfield reported 6 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 896. 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.
Position in the state cohort
Grandfield reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Oklahoma cities
At 669.6 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Grandfield ranks 23 of 300 — above 277 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +215.3% against the cohort median of 212.4. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Comparable rate records
Grandfield's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Oklahoma cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Grandfield's 669.6 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Oklahoma City (676.0), Mountain View (682.1), Okemah (656.0), Porum (655.7). 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.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 100.0% of reported property offenses in Grandfield, against a cohort median of 66.1%. The remainder is burglary (0) and motor vehicle theft (0). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Violent counts are the sharper signal on Grandfield's FBI UCR Table 8 municipal row. 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 6 reported violent incidents in a population of 896. 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.
