property crimes per 100K
Based on 6 reported violent incidents in a population of 1,424. 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 Kremmling, CO
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Kremmling reported 6 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 1,424. 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.
Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 33.3% of the 18 Part I offenses reported in Kremmling for 2024, against a median of 11.7% across comparable Colorado cities — a gap of 21.7 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.
Comparable rate records
Kremmling's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Colorado cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Kremmling's 421.3 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Calhan (419.0), Avon (424.0), Burlington (417.2), Northglenn (431.8). 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
Kremmling reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Colorado cities
At 421.3 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Kremmling ranks 32 of 134 — above 102 of the 133 other Colorado cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +116.2% against the cohort median of 194.9. 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 Kremmling'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 6 reported violent incidents in a population of 1,424. 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.
