What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Mandeville, LA
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Mandeville reported 17 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 13,053. 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.
Position in the state cohort
Mandeville reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Louisiana cities
At 130.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Mandeville ranks 58 of 66 — above 8 of the 65 other Louisiana cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -69.5% against the cohort median of 426.8. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Comparable rate records
Mandeville's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Louisiana cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Mandeville's 130.2 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Blanchard (119.7), Addis (141.1), Harahan (104.7), Lake Arthur (156.4). 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 103.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 130.2 in 2024 (+25.4%). The highest observed value was 188.8 in 2022 and the lowest 103.8 in 2020. 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 9.6% of the 178 Part I offenses reported in Mandeville for 2024, against a median of 18.6% across comparable Louisiana cities — a gap of 9.1 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-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 88.2% of reported property offenses in Mandeville, against a cohort median of 76.6%. The remainder is burglary (13) and motor vehicle theft (6). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Property counts dominate Mandeville'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 17 reported violent incidents in a population of 13,053. 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.
Mid-size municipal totals above are reported offenses, not safety advice for any single block. Reporting completeness still varies by year and agency.
