What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Tinicum Township, Bucks County, PA

Small-count caution

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

Tinicum Township, Bucks County reported 4 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 3,803. 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.

Offense mix

Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix

Violent offenses are 28.6% of the 14 Part I offenses reported in Tinicum Township, Bucks County for 2024, against a median of 10.0% across comparable Pennsylvania cities — a gap of 18.6 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.

Comparable rate records

Tinicum Township, Bucks County's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Pennsylvania cohort

The nearest comparable 2024 records to Tinicum Township, Bucks County's 105.2 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Cresson Township (106.0), Bedford (106.5), Shippensburg (106.6), Bern Township (103.8). 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

Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort

Larceny-theft is 60.0% of reported property offenses in Tinicum Township, Bucks County, against a cohort median of 85.9%. The remainder is burglary (3) and motor vehicle theft (1). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.

Position in the state cohort

Tinicum Township, Bucks County sits mid-pack among comparable Pennsylvania cities

At 105.2 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Tinicum Township, Bucks County ranks 302 of 838 — above 536 of the 837 other Pennsylvania cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +61.0% against the cohort median of 65.3. 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 Tinicum Township, Bucks County'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 4 reported violent incidents in a population of 3,803. 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.

Tinicum Township, Bucks County's 2024 municipal footprint
