Safety Grade

Not graded yet

A grade needs all of the FBI's latest years (2023–2025). Oriskany's police department reported only 2023 and 2024, so we don't grade it yet. The figures below are still real.

Most reports in most towns are thefts: packages, bikes, things left in unlocked cars. Locking up and a porch light go a long way.

How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • It’s reported crime. Only incidents reported to and recorded by police appear here. Many thefts and some assaults are never reported.
  • Small numbers swing. In a town of about 1,300, a handful of incidents moves the rate noticeably from year to year. The trend matters more than any one year.
  • Visitors count too. Towns with a campus, highway, beach or shopping center see incidents involving people who don’t live there.
  • Gaps are real gaps. A missing year means the department didn’t report a full year, not that nothing happened.
