Position in the state cohort
Newberg-Dundee sits mid-pack among comparable Oregon cities
At 144.5 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Newberg-Dundee ranks 66 of 88 — above 22 of the 87 other Oregon cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -35.3% against the cohort median of 223.4. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 116.3 per 100,000 in 2020 to 144.5 in 2024 (+24.3%). The highest observed value was 219.3 in 2021 and the lowest 116.3 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Property counts dominate Newberg-Dundee'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.
