Comparable rate records
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Millbrook's 243.9 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Athens (243.4), Georgiana (238.7), Albertville (236.6), Creola (252.9). 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.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft is 91.7% of reported property offenses in Millbrook, against a cohort median of 74.2%. The remainder is burglary (26) and motor vehicle theft (24). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 6.6% of the 649 Part I offenses reported in Millbrook for 2024, against a median of 13.9% across comparable Alabama cities — a gap of 7.3 points. Offense mix is shaped by which agencies report and how incidents are classified as well as by the underlying offenses, so it describes the reported record rather than a settled difference in conditions.
2020–2024 direction
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 287.6 per 100,000 in 2020 to 243.9 in 2024 (-15.2%). The highest observed value was 299.6 in 2023 and the lowest 187.9 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
At 243.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Millbrook ranks 121 of 263 — above 142 of the 262 other Alabama cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +14.2% against the cohort median of 213.5. 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 Millbrook'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.
