How Data is Compiled
Community Crime Map data comes from police case reports written by our officers:Some incidents involve more than one crime, but all incidents will only appear once on the map. For example, if an incident involved a robbery and an assault, it would be listed under “robbery” because that is the more serious offense. Some crimes may not appear on the map because they do not have a specific address associated with them. - Sometime crimes are reclassified after they’ve been investigated.
When Data Becomes Available
- The map is updated daily and includes information for the last 6 months
- It may take several weeks from the time a crime is first reported to when it appears on the crime map
- Some crimes are reported weeks or months after the event
- Some information about crimes cannot be released right away because it would compromise an open investigation
The crime map is provided for general informational purposes only. The map should not be understood as legal documentation about the total number of crimes reported.
