What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Kaysville, UT
Comparable rate records
Kaysville's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Utah cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Kaysville's 97.2 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Santaquin/Genola (102.0), Saratoga Springs (90.8), Clinton (88.9), Lehi (88.2). 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.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 66.7 per 100,000 in 2020 to 97.2 in 2024 (+45.6%). The highest observed value was 97.2 in 2024 and the lowest 63.4 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
Kaysville sits mid-pack among comparable Utah cities
At 97.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Kaysville ranks 53 of 77 — above 24 of the 76 other Utah cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -31.5% against the cohort median of 141.9. 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 Kaysville'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.
