What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Moore, OK
Comparable rate records
Moore's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Oklahoma cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Moore's 190.2 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Red Oak (189.0), Noble (187.8), Wister (187.6), Checotah (193.3). 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.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 11.2% of the 1,083 Part I offenses reported in Moore for 2024, against a median of 15.0% across comparable Oklahoma cities — a gap of 3.8 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.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 74.3% of reported property offenses in Moore, against a cohort median of 66.1%. The remainder is burglary (141) and motor vehicle theft (106). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 208.5 per 100,000 in 2020 to 190.2 in 2024 (-8.8%). The highest observed value was 292.5 in 2021 and the lowest 190.2 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
Moore sits mid-pack among comparable Oklahoma cities
At 190.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Moore ranks 161 of 300 — above 139 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -10.8% against the cohort median of 213.2. 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 Moore'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.
On a large city row, these are citywide reported offense totals - not neighbourhood advice. Conditions vary by place and time; reporting rates differ across jurisdictions.
