What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Wright City, OK
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Wright City reported 0 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 595. 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 136.6 per 100,000 in 2020 to 0.0 in 2024 (-100.0%). The highest observed value was 136.6 in 2020 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.
Position in the state cohort
Wright City reported a lower violent-crime rate than most comparable Oklahoma cities
At 0.0 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Wright City ranks 240 of 300 — above 0 of the 299 other Oklahoma cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -100.0% against the cohort median of 213.2. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Comparable rate records
Wright City's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Oklahoma cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Wright City's 0.0 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Afton (0.0), Amber (0.0), Arapaho (0.0), Arcadia (0.0). 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 0.0% of the 8 Part I offenses reported in Wright City for 2024, against a median of 15.0% across comparable Oklahoma cities — a gap of 15.0 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 87.5% of reported property offenses in Wright City, against a cohort median of 66.1%. 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.
Property counts dominate Wright City'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 0 reported violent incidents in a population of 595. 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.
