What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Tuolumne County, CA

Position in the state cohort

Tuolumne County reported a higher violent-crime rate than most comparable California counties

At 413.5 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Tuolumne County ranks 8 of 56 — above 48 of the 55 other California counties whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test and carries a matched Census denominator. That is +255.2% against the cohort median of 116.4. 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 39.1% of the 588 Part I offenses reported in Tuolumne County for 2024, against a median of 29.6% across comparable California counties — a gap of 9.6 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 higher

Across 4 comparable reporting years, the rate moved from 368.6 per 100,000 in 2020 to 413.5 in 2024 (+12.2%). The highest observed value was 593.3 in 2022 and the lowest 368.6 in 2020. Years whose submission failed the completeness test are left out of this comparison rather than plotted as change.

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.
