Based on 0 reported violent incidents in a population of 548. 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.

What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Ravenna, KY

Small-count caution

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

Ravenna reported 0 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 548. 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

Ravenna reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Kentucky cities

At 0.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Ravenna ranks 149 of 231 — above 0 of the 230 other Kentucky cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -100.0% against the cohort median of 66.9. 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

Ravenna's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Kentucky cohort

The nearest comparable 2024 records to Ravenna's 0.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Adairville (0.0), Allen (0.0), Anchorage (0.0), Bancroft (0.0). 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.

Offense mix

The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort

Violent offenses are 0.0% of the 4 Part I offenses reported in Ravenna for 2024, against a median of 8.1% across comparable Kentucky cities — a gap of 8.1 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 Ravenna'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 0 reported violent incidents in a population of 548. 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.
