What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Suisun City, CA
Comparable rate records
Suisun City's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the California cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Suisun City's 389.4 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Burbank (390.6), Bell Gardens (388.1), Hermosa Beach (393.2), Colton (393.2). 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.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 449.0 per 100,000 in 2020 to 389.4 in 2024 (-13.3%). The highest observed value was 449.0 in 2020 and the lowest 356.2 in 2022. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 20.9% of the 532 Part I offenses reported in Suisun City for 2024, against a median of 17.1% across comparable California cities — a gap of 3.8 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
Suisun City sits mid-pack among comparable California cities
At 389.4 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Suisun City ranks 198 of 458 — above 260 of the 457 other California cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +18.6% against the cohort median of 328.5. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Property counts dominate Suisun 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.
Mid-size municipal totals above are reported offenses, not safety advice for any single block. Reporting completeness still varies by year and agency.
