Small-count caution
Orland Park reported 16 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 56,593. 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.
Comparable rate records
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Orland Park's 28.3 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Huntley (28.1), Bartlett (27.7), Sandwich (27.7), Le Roy (29.0). 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
At 28.3 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Orland Park ranks 389 of 506 — above 117 of the 505 other Illinois cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -71.9% against the cohort median of 100.7. 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
Across 3 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 37.9 per 100,000 in 2020 to 28.3 in 2024 (-25.5%). The highest observed value was 37.9 in 2020 and the lowest 28.3 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 2.5% of the 637 Part I offenses reported in Orland Park for 2024, against a median of 11.3% across comparable Illinois cities — a gap of 8.8 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 counts dominate Orland Park'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 16 reported violent incidents in a population of 56,593. 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.
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.
