To deliver truly effective and relevant security services in Ohio, it is imperative to possess a clear, current, and nuanced understanding of the prevailing crime trends within the state. As a diverse state with major urban centers and extensive rural areas, Ohio experiences varying patterns of criminal activity. The Ohio Department of Public Safety (ODPS) and the Ohio Attorney General’s Office are primary authorities for collecting and disseminating statewide crime data, largely adhering to the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program and increasingly moving towards NIBRS (National Incident-Based Reporting System) for more detailed insights. Understanding these specific patterns, including those related to property crime (e.g., larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft) and violent crime (e.g., aggravated assault, robbery), allows us to tailor our security solutions with precision and agility.

Recent data indicates that Ohio’s violent crime rate is generally lower than the national average, while its property crime rate also tends to be below the national average. However, certain cities and specific types of crime can show different trends. For instance, while statewide property crime rates might be lower, motor vehicle theft has shown increases. Furthermore, cities like Cleveland, Canton, and Toledo have been identified as having higher crime rates within the state, often driven by a combination of property crimes and specific violent offenses like aggravated assault and robbery. Conversely, smaller communities such as Broadview Heights and New Philadelphia boast significantly lower crime rates, highlighting the diverse security needs across Ohio.
