What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Traill County, ND
2020–2024 direction
The reported violent-crime rate ended the window higher
Across 5 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 12.5 per 100,000 in 2020 to 37.5 in 2024 (+200.0%). The highest observed value was 62.5 in 2021 and the lowest 12.5 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Traill County reported 3 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 7,997. 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.
Offense mix
The reported mix leans further toward property offenses than the state cohort
Violent offenses are 6.3% of the 48 Part I offenses reported in Traill County for 2024, against a median of 11.8% across comparable North Dakota counties — a gap of 5.5 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.
Position in the state cohort
Traill County sits mid-pack among comparable North Dakota counties
At 37.5 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Traill County ranks 14 of 30 — above 16 of the 29 other North Dakota counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +19.7% against the cohort median of 31.4. Counties that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Small-county UCR rows are especially sensitive to which agencies filed. Per-100,000 rates use a matched 2020 Census population when available; otherwise counts only. Do not treat the county total as a town-level crime level.
