What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Ratliff City, OK
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Ratliff City reported 1 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 64. 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.
Position in the state cohort
Ratliff City reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Oklahoma cities
At 1562.5 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Ratliff City ranks 2 of 300 — above 298 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +635.6% against the cohort median of 212.4. 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
Ratliff City's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Oklahoma cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Ratliff City's 1562.5 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Bennington (1261.8), Depew (1207.7), Ardmore (1141.2), Wetumka (1055.4). 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-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 100.0% of reported property offenses in Ratliff City, against a cohort median of 66.1%. The remainder is burglary (0) and motor vehicle theft (0). 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 20.0% of the 5 Part I offenses reported in Ratliff City for 2024, against a median of 15.0% across comparable Oklahoma cities — a gap of 5.0 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.
Property counts dominate Ratliff City'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 64. 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 small municipal row, small denominators make rates sensitive to a handful of incidents. Figures are reported totals, not neighbourhood advice.
