What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Miami, OK
Position in the state cohort
Miami reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Oklahoma cities
At 514.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Miami ranks 41 of 300 — above 259 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +142.1% against the cohort median of 212.4. 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
Miami's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Oklahoma cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Miami's 514.2 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Bristow (516.4), Spencer (518.1), Cyril (507.0), Sallisaw (506.4). 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 422.0 per 100,000 in 2020 to 514.2 in 2024 (+21.8%). The highest observed value was 514.2 in 2024 and the lowest 422.0 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 76.1% of reported property offenses in Miami, against a cohort median of 66.1%. The remainder is burglary (64) and motor vehicle theft (24). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Property counts dominate Miami'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.
