What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for North Ogden, UT

Small-count caution

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

North Ogden reported 19 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 22,645. 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.

2020–2024 direction

The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher

Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 52.5 per 100,000 in 2020 to 83.9 in 2024 (+59.9%). The highest observed value was 139.2 in 2023 and the lowest 52.5 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.

Comparable rate records

North Ogden's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Utah cohort

The nearest comparable 2024 records to North Ogden's 83.9 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Mapleton (82.3), Enoch (81.0), Cottonwood Heights (88.1), Lehi (88.2). 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.

Position in the state cohort

North Ogden reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Utah cities

At 83.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, North Ogden ranks 58 of 77 — above 19 of the 76 other Utah cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -40.9% against the cohort median of 141.9. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.

Property-offense composition

Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort

Larceny-theft is 65.8% of reported property offenses in North Ogden, against a cohort median of 81.7%. The remainder is burglary (31) and motor vehicle theft (7). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.

Property counts dominate North Ogden'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 19 reported violent incidents in a population of 22,645. 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.
