What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Osceola County, MI

Position in the state cohort

Osceola County reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Michigan counties

At 152.9 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Osceola County ranks 12 of 67 — above 55 of the 66 other Michigan counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +99.5% against the cohort median of 76.6. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.

Property-offense composition

Burglary and vehicle theft carry more of the property total than they do across the cohort

Larceny-theft is 61.1% of reported property offenses in Osceola County, against a cohort median of 72.9%. The remainder is burglary (31) and motor vehicle theft (11). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.

Mid-size county rows still aggregate voluntary UCR submissions. Per-100,000 rates need a matched 2020 Census population; unmatched stay count-only. County-wide totals rarely describe any single town inside the line.
