What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Rosemont, IL
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Rosemont reported 21 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 3,710. 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
Rosemont reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Illinois cities
At 566.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Rosemont ranks 22 of 506 — above 484 of the 505 other Illinois cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +467.9% against the cohort median of 99.7. 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
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 1209.9 per 100,000 in 2020 to 566.0 in 2024 (-53.2%). The highest observed value was 1209.9 in 2020 and the lowest 566.0 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Comparable rate records
Rosemont's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Illinois cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Rosemont's 566.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Paris (577.4), Oakwood (550.7), Rantoul (549.2), Urbana (544.4). 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 89.3% of reported property offenses in Rosemont, against a cohort median of 70.2%. The remainder is burglary (14) and motor vehicle theft (12). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 8.0% of the 264 Part I offenses reported in Rosemont for 2024, against a median of 11.3% across comparable Illinois cities — a gap of 3.3 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.
Property counts dominate Rosemont'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 21 reported violent incidents in a population of 3,710. 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.
