Based on 1 reported violent incidents in a population of 3,055.

What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Presidio, TX
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Presidio reported 1 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 3,055. 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.
Property-offense composition
Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 0.0% of reported property offenses in Presidio, against a cohort median of 71.6%. The remainder is burglary (0) and motor vehicle theft (2). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 33.3% of the 3 Part I offenses reported in Presidio for 2024, against a median of 14.3% across comparable Texas cities — a gap of 19.0 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.
Position in the state cohort
Presidio reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Texas cities
At 32.7 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Presidio ranks 602 of 686 — above 84 of the 685 other Texas cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -81.8% against the cohort median of 179.9. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Comparable rate records
Presidio's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Texas cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Presidio's 32.7 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Poteet (32.7), Corinth (33.3), Southlake (32.2), San Saba (32.1). 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 counts dominate Presidio'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 1 reported violent incidents in a population of 3,055. 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.
Small-city offense counts above are voluntary UCR submissions, not neighbourhood advice. Year-to-year swings can look large when the population base is modest.
