Fulton County, NY reported 43 violent crimes per 100,000 in FBI UCR 2024
According to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program for 2024, Fulton County, NY agencies reported 23 violent and 193 property offenses. That equals about 43 violent and 362 property crimes per 100,000 using a verified Census population join. Table 10 coverage is a voluntary subset of U.S. counties.
2020–2024 direction
Across 3 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 24.4 per 100,000 in 2020 to 43.1 in 2024 (+76.9%). The highest observed value was 43.1 in 2024 and the lowest 24.4 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Small-count caution
Fulton County reported 23 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 53,324. 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.
Position in the state cohort
At 43.1 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Fulton County ranks 6 of 39 — above 33 of the 38 other New York counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +72.5% against the cohort median of 25.0. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
On a large county row, county figures aggregate every participating agency inside the county. Participation is voluntary. Per-100,000 rates use a separately matched 2020 U.S. Census county population, never a Table 10 field; unmatched counties stay count-only. A large county line encloses very different communities.
