Position in the state cohort
Sequoyah County reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable Oklahoma counties
At 142.6 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Sequoyah County ranks 13 of 73 — above 60 of the 72 other Oklahoma counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +70.2% against the cohort median of 83.8. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 25.8% of the 217 Part I offenses reported in Sequoyah County for 2024, against a median of 16.4% across comparable Oklahoma counties — a gap of 9.4 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.
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window lower
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 155.3 per 100,000 in 2020 to 142.6 in 2024 (-8.2%). The highest observed value was 196.0 in 2021 and the lowest 142.6 in 2024. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
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.
