Position in the state cohort
At 317.3 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Tigard ranks 22 of 88 — above 66 of the 87 other Oregon cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +43.9% against the cohort median of 220.4. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Offense mix
Violent offenses are 8.4% of the 2,109 Part I offenses reported in Tigard for 2024, against a median of 11.4% across comparable Oregon cities — a gap of 3.0 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 Tigard'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.
