What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Tullahoma, TN

Comparable rate records

Tullahoma's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Tennessee cohort

The nearest comparable 2024 records to Tullahoma's 391.4 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Springfield (390.3), Adamsville (394.6), Red Bank (396.3), Berry Hill (397.3). 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 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 717.0 per 100,000 in 2020 to 391.4 in 2024 (-45.4%). The highest observed value was 717.0 in 2020 and the lowest 391.4 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.

Position in the state cohort

Tullahoma sits mid-pack among comparable Tennessee cities

At 391.4 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Tullahoma ranks 67 of 176 — above 109 of the 175 other Tennessee cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +31.2% against the cohort median of 298.4. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.

Property-offense composition

Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort

Larceny-theft is 85.9% of reported property offenses in Tullahoma, against a cohort median of 77.1%. The remainder is burglary (29) and motor vehicle theft (21). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.

Property counts dominate Tullahoma'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.
