The verdict
Keego Harbor earns an A safety grade: violent crime runs 69% below the U.S. average, placing it close to the national middle for violent crime.
Based on 3 reported violent incidents in a population of 2,719. 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.
Small-count caution
Keego Harbor reported 3 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 2,719. 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
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Keego Harbor's 110.3 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Howell (110.2), Brighton (110.6), Richfield Township, Roscommon County (111.1), Grosse Pointe (111.5). 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.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 174.9 per 100,000 in 2020 to 110.3 in 2024 (-36.9%). The highest observed value was 412.2 in 2021 and the lowest 73.6 in 2023. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft is 50.0% of reported property offenses in Keego Harbor, against a cohort median of 79.7%. The remainder is burglary (5) and motor vehicle theft (0). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Position in the state cohort
At 110.3 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Keego Harbor ranks 245 of 366 — above 121 of the 365 other Michigan cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -41.4% against the cohort median of 188.3. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 23.1% of the 13 Part I offenses reported in Keego Harbor for 2024, against a median of 16.7% across comparable Michigan cities — a gap of 6.4 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.
Property counts dominate Keego Harbor'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 3 reported violent incidents in a population of 2,719. 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.
Small-city offense counts above are voluntary UCR submissions, not neighbourhood advice. Year-to-year swings can look large when the population base is modest.
