What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for West Conshohocken, PA
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
West Conshohocken reported 1 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 1,495. 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.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 207.6 per 100,000 in 2020 to 66.9 in 2024 (-67.8%). The highest observed value was 266.3 in 2022 and the lowest 0.0 in 2021. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Comparable rate records
West Conshohocken's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Pennsylvania cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to West Conshohocken's 66.9 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Hatfield Township (67.6), Ligonier Valley Regional (66.1), West Brandywine Township (68.1), Eastern Berks Regional (68.3). 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.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 4.8% of the 21 Part I offenses reported in West Conshohocken for 2024, against a median of 10.0% across comparable Pennsylvania cities — a gap of 5.2 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-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 95.0% of reported property offenses in West Conshohocken, against a cohort median of 85.8%. The remainder is burglary (1) and motor vehicle theft (0). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Position in the state cohort
West Conshohocken sits mid-pack among comparable Pennsylvania cities
At 66.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, West Conshohocken ranks 418 of 838 — above 420 of the 837 other Pennsylvania cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is +2.4% 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 West Conshohocken'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 1 reported violent incidents in a population of 1,495. 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.
On a small municipal row, small denominators make rates sensitive to a handful of incidents. Figures are reported totals, not neighbourhood advice.
