Based on 7 reported violent incidents in a population of 10,034.

What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Whitehouse, TX
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Whitehouse reported 7 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 10,034. 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 165.8 per 100,000 in 2020 to 69.8 in 2024 (-57.9%). The highest observed value was 165.8 in 2020 and the lowest 69.8 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Comparable rate records
Whitehouse's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Texas cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Whitehouse's 69.8 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Leander (69.5), Somerville (68.6), Oak Ridge North (68.0), Natalia (72.3). 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.
Position in the state cohort
Whitehouse reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Texas cities
At 69.8 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Whitehouse ranks 548 of 686 — above 138 of the 685 other Texas cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -61.2% against the cohort median of 179.9. 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 81.6% of reported property offenses in Whitehouse, against a cohort median of 71.6%. The remainder is burglary (4) and motor vehicle theft (3). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Property counts dominate Whitehouse'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 7 reported violent incidents in a population of 10,034. 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.
Mid-size municipal totals above are reported offenses, not safety advice for any single block. Reporting completeness still varies by year and agency.
