What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Maryville, TN
Comparable rate records
Maryville's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Tennessee cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Maryville's 132.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Franklin (132.1), Huntingdon (132.5), Unicoi (131.0), South Pittsburg (136.2). 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 223.3 per 100,000 in 2020 to 132.0 in 2024 (-40.9%). The highest observed value was 223.3 in 2020 and the lowest 132.0 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
Maryville reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Tennessee cities
At 132.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Maryville ranks 136 of 176 — above 40 of the 175 other Tennessee cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -56.4% against the cohort median of 302.8. 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 Maryville'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.
Mid-size municipal totals above are reported offenses, not safety advice for any single block. Reporting completeness still varies by year and agency.
