What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Miamisburg, OH
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Miamisburg reported 29 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 19,781. 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
Miamisburg's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Ohio cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Miamisburg's 146.6 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Delaware (146.6), Hicksville (146.2), Fairfield Township (147.9), Ontario (150.4). 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 lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 228.4 per 100,000 in 2020 to 146.6 in 2024 (-35.8%). The highest observed value was 228.4 in 2020 and the lowest 142.0 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property-offense composition
Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 69.8% of reported property offenses in Miamisburg, against a cohort median of 84.0%. The remainder is burglary (34) and motor vehicle theft (54). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Position in the state cohort
Miamisburg sits mid-pack among comparable Ohio cities
At 146.6 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Miamisburg ranks 133 of 340 — above 207 of the 339 other Ohio cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +29.6% against the cohort median of 113.1. 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 Miamisburg'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 29 reported violent incidents in a population of 19,781. 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.
