Position in the state cohort
At 674.6 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Grandview ranks 26 of 272 — above 246 of the 271 other Missouri cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +266.0% against the cohort median of 184.3. 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
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Grandview's 674.6 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Winfield (675.3), Maplewood (652.4), Bridgeton (651.4), North Kansas City (709.5). 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 is 58.0% of reported property offenses in Grandview, against a cohort median of 78.6%. The remainder is burglary (158) and motor vehicle theft (242). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 799.3 per 100,000 in 2020 to 674.6 in 2024 (-15.6%). The highest observed value was 799.3 in 2020 and the lowest 218.3 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property counts dominate Grandview'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.
