What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Marysville, PA
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Marysville reported 3 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 2,679. 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 9 Part I offenses reported in Marysville for 2024, against a median of 10.0% across comparable Pennsylvania cities — a gap of 23.3 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.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 234.2 per 100,000 in 2020 to 112.0 in 2024 (-52.2%). The highest observed value was 234.2 in 2020 and the lowest 0.0 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Comparable rate records
Marysville's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Pennsylvania cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Marysville's 112.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Newport Township (111.9), Glenolden (111.9), Clarion (112.7), South Buffalo Township (113.3). 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
Marysville sits mid-pack among comparable Pennsylvania cities
At 112.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Marysville ranks 286 of 838 — above 552 of the 837 other Pennsylvania cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +71.4% against the cohort median of 65.3. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 100.0% of reported property offenses in Marysville, against a cohort median of 85.8%. The remainder is burglary (0) and motor vehicle theft (0). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Property counts dominate Marysville'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 2,679. 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.
