property crimes per 100K
Based on 11 reported violent incidents in a population of 4,120. 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 Roosevelt Park, MI
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Roosevelt Park reported 11 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 4,120. 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
Roosevelt Park's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Michigan cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Roosevelt Park's 267.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Marshall (266.4), Plainwell (267.8), Pittsfield Township (265.0), Thomas Township (270.0). 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 4.5% of the 243 Part I offenses reported in Roosevelt Park for 2024, against a median of 16.8% across comparable Michigan cities — a gap of 12.3 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.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 369.1 per 100,000 in 2020 to 267.0 in 2024 (-27.7%). The highest observed value was 369.1 in 2020 and the lowest 105.8 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
Roosevelt Park sits mid-pack among comparable Michigan cities
At 267.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Roosevelt Park ranks 136 of 366 — above 230 of the 365 other Michigan cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +42.8% against the cohort median of 187.0. 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
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 94.4% of reported property offenses in Roosevelt Park, against a cohort median of 79.7%. The remainder is burglary (8) and motor vehicle theft (5). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Property counts dominate Roosevelt 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 11 reported violent incidents in a population of 4,120. 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.
