An Overview of Crime Rates in Haskell, OK

Crime is typically categorized into two main types: violent and property crimes. Violent crimes encompass offenses such as murder, rape, robbery, and assault, while property crimes include burglary, theft, and vehicle theft. Based on the most recent report, the Haskell crime rate is higher than the national average by 64.3%. Specifically, there were 11 violent crimes in Haskell, equivalent to 646 per 100,000 individuals, higher than the national average by 74.8%. Furthermore, Haskell recorded 54 property crimes, amounting to 3173 per 100,000 residents, which was higher than the average by 62.3%.

In the latest reported crime year, Haskell recorded zero homicides. This statistic potentially positions the city as a paragon of security, radiating a profound sense of safety for its residents. A low number of severe violent crimes instills a deep feeling of well-being among its community but also establishes a lofty benchmark for other locales aspiring to foster equally secure environments.

Recently, vehicle thefts have seen an upward trend across the United States, and Haskell ranks among the cities with the highest vehicle theft rates in the country. Last year, there were 7 vehicle thefts, amounting to 411 stolen vehicles per 100,000 residents. This places Haskell within the worst 10% of all cities, indicating that 90% of cities fare better in terms of vehicle theft rates. The likelihood of your vehicle being stolen stands at 1 in 244.

Is Haskell a Safe Place to Live?

Before you decide to relocate, it’s always good to ask yourself “Is Haskell a safe place to live?” Although the answer might not be that simple, as some areas are safer than others, getting a good feel for the overall rate of crime can definitely be helpful. Overall, the Haskell crime rate is 64% higher than the national average. If we break that down daily, that translates into 0.18 crimes per day - 0.03 violent crimes and 0.15 property crimes.

Has Crime in Haskell Increased Since Last Year?

Examining year-over-year crime data provides insights into short-term trends with regards to the crime activity in Haskell. This analysis involves comparing crime rates from one year to the next, enabling the identification of patterns and fluctuations in crime. Such information proves invaluable to residents seeking to make well-informed decisions about their choice of residence. In the most recent year, compared to the previous one, total crime in Haskell has increased by 20.4%. Specifically, violent crime has increased by 83.3%, while property crime has increased by 12.5%. This data empowers individuals with a clearer understanding of the evolving safety landscape in Haskell.

Potential Causes for Crime in Haskell

The economic prosperity of a city's inhabitants exerts substantial influence on crime stats. Elevated poverty rates and income inequality can precipitate heightened criminal activity, as individuals may turn to illicit means to fulfill their fundamental requirements. While lower poverty rates could lead to lower Haskell crime rates. In Haskell, the poverty rate stands at 16.4%, diverging from the national average of 15.1%.

In Haskell, 79.7% of residents have graduated from high school, whereas the national average stands at 83%. The educational makeup of a community can exert a significant influence on crime rates. Typically, higher levels of educational attainment are associated with reduced crime rates, as they furnish individuals with improved employment prospects and viable alternatives to engaging in criminal activities. Conversely, communities characterized by lower educational achievement often grapple with higher crime rates, as limited opportunities may drive individuals towards criminal behavior.

High rent costs can create economic stress for individuals and families, particularly those with limited financial resources. When a significant portion of one's income is spent on housing, there may be less money available for other essential needs such as food, healthcare and education. Economic stress can contribute to desperation and potentially lead individuals to engage in criminal activities, such as theft or fraud, as a means of financial survival. Average rent rates in Haskell are $719, compared to a national average of $949 per month.

Haskell crime map



The Haskell crime map provides a detailed overview of all crimes in Haskell as reported by the local law enforcement agencies. Based on the color coded legend above, the crime map outlines the areas with lower crime compared to the areas with higher crime. The Haskell crime heat map offers insight into the total crimes on a block group level. Please note that the red areas on the Haskell crime map does not always indicate that it is a dangerous area for its residents. Areas on the heat map could be inflated if they are located in high traffic areas like airports, sports centers or large parks. Other areas on the heat map could see increased crime rates if they are located in major tourist areas like the downtown core.
