Based on 15 reported violent incidents in a population of 10,028.

What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Massena Village, NY
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Massena Village reported 15 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 10,028. 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.
Comparable rate records
Massena Village's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the New York cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Massena Village's 149.6 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Tupper Lake Village (151.0), East Rochester Village (147.4), Canajoharie Village (146.7), Pelham Manor Village (145.9). 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
Massena Village reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable New York cities
At 149.6 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Massena Village ranks 80 of 326 — above 246 of the 325 other New York cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +147.6% against the cohort median of 60.4. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 177.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 149.6 in 2024 (-15.9%). The highest observed value was 177.8 in 2020 and the lowest 129.4 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property counts dominate Massena Village'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 15 reported violent incidents in a population of 10,028. 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.
