What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Middlesex Township, Butler County, PA

Small-count caution

The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable

Middlesex Township, Butler County reported 0 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 7,545. 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.
