What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Tualatin, OR
Comparable rate records
Tualatin's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Oregon cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Tualatin's 220.4 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Redmond (217.5), Seaside (223.4), Roseburg (217.4), Milton-Freewater (216.8). 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.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 7.8% of the 774 Part I offenses reported in Tualatin for 2024, against a median of 11.4% across comparable Oregon cities — a gap of 3.7 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 228.3 per 100,000 in 2020 to 220.4 in 2024 (-3.5%). The highest observed value was 271.6 in 2021 and the lowest 216.2 in 2023. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Position in the state cohort
Tualatin sits mid-pack among comparable Oregon cities
At 220.4 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Tualatin ranks 45 of 88 — above 43 of the 87 other Oregon cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -1.3% against the cohort median of 223.4. 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 Tualatin'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.
