What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Lewisville, TX
Comparable rate records
Lewisville's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Texas cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Lewisville's 187.4 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Euless (187.4), Red Oak (187.2), Richwood (187.9), Denver City (188.1). 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 lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 297.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 187.4 in 2024 (-37.1%). The highest observed value was 297.8 in 2020 and the lowest 187.4 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 11.0% of the 2,319 Part I offenses reported in Lewisville for 2024, against a median of 14.4% across comparable Texas cities — a gap of 3.4 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.
Position in the state cohort
Lewisville sits mid-pack among comparable Texas cities
At 187.4 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Lewisville ranks 332 of 686 — above 354 of the 685 other Texas cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +4.7% against the cohort median of 178.9. 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 Lewisville'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.
On a large city row, these are citywide reported offense totals - not neighbourhood advice. Conditions vary by place and time; reporting rates differ across jurisdictions.
