The total number of violent crimes reported for 2024 was 3,381. Violent crime in Colorado and Denver decreased during the first half of 2024 compared to the last two years, but remains higher than pre-pandemic levels, according to new data.
Measure the crime rate in Denver last year and compare it to 2024's crime rate. Denver's violent crime rate was 7.7 crimes per 1,000 residents. Its property crime rate was 55.1 per 1,000. Its domestic violence rate was 2.7 per 1,000.
Use main streets and avoid alleys. Be aware of your surroundings. Keep your eyes up and not on your phone. If alone at night, consider using Uber, Lyft, or a taxi.
When it comes to violent crimes, Colorado has 905 per 100,000 residents, and property crime is 10,211 per 100,000 residents. The two most dangerous cities in the state of Colorado are Sheridan and Pueblo, so be aware when traveling to these Colorado cities. Looking for the safest city in Colorado?
The article explores the 10 most dangerous cities in the United States for the year 2024 based on data analysis of violent crime rates, including homicide, robbery, and assault. Detroit, Michigan, tops the list with a staggering violent crime rate, followed by cities like Memphis, Tennessee, and Baltimore, Maryland.
Violent crimes typically result in a higher cost than nonviolent crimes, MoneyGeek said. In Colorado, the safest cities in the top 100 are Centennial (20), Fort Collins (36) and Boulder (95).
Theft or larceny represents 43% of all crimes committed through 2023, according to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation's database, while violent crime is 11%.
Violent crimes occur at a rate of 20.59 per 1,000 residents in Detroit. This rate includes offenses such as aggravated assault, robbery, and homicides, indicating a significant impact on the community's sense of security.
Since January, there have been 11 homicides in Pueblo - or one per every 1,000 residents in the city of just more than 111,000 people. For comparison, Denver has reported 24 homicides in 2024 - in a city of more than 700,000. It's the continuation of a now long-running, and worrisome, trend.
The average monthly crime rate in Aurora has increased by 12.5% from 688 per 100,000 in 2008 to 774 per 100,000 in 2022. Since 2008, the crime rate in Aurora has exceeded the state as a whole. As of 2022, Aurora's crime rate is 36% higher than Colorado's. In 2008, Aurora's crime rate was 55.7% higher.
Denver has dealt with its fair share of crime since the COVID-19 pandemic, and according to WalletHub, it is one of the least safe states in the U.S. Out of the 50 states, Colorado ranked toward the bottom at No. 43.
Denver, Colorado, was recently chosen by Architectural Digest as the most climate-resilient city in the U.S., in a survey of 50 major cities analyzed. Denver's clean energy infrastructure and elevation, which limits its risk to sea level rise, were cited as the primary reasons for the city's top ranking.
As Colorado continues to take positive steps toward reactivating our economy, the health and safety of both residents and visitors remain our highest priority. Travelers to Colorado are asked to wear masks indoors and practice recommended hygiene and social distancing regardless of vaccination status.
