Position in the state cohort
At 93.1 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Mansfield ranks 515 of 686 — above 171 of the 685 other Texas cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -48.3% against the cohort median of 179.9. 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 6.3% of the 1,188 Part I offenses reported in Mansfield for 2024, against a median of 14.4% across comparable Texas cities — a gap of 8.0 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 is 81.0% of reported property offenses in Mansfield, against a cohort median of 71.6%. The remainder is burglary (89) and motor vehicle theft (123). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
2020–2024 direction
