What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Hartshorne, OK
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Hartshorne reported 7 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 1,879. 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
Hartshorne's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Oklahoma cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Hartshorne's 372.5 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are McLoud (375.3), McAlester (369.5), Seminole (369.5), Bartlesville (367.6). 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
Hartshorne reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Oklahoma cities
At 372.5 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Hartshorne ranks 75 of 300 — above 225 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +75.4% 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.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 360.1 per 100,000 in 2020 to 372.5 in 2024 (+3.5%). The highest observed value was 372.5 in 2024 and the lowest 103.7 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property counts dominate Hartshorne'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 7 reported violent incidents in a population of 1,879. 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.
