Does anyone have a neighborhood map like the one below? I have a list of neighborhoods and their corresponding grades but I have not put it into a map like this. Also, I think this could be more precise than my list.
@Jonathan Farber your state (all states) have a system for collecting and reporting crime data...personal crimes, like assault, rape, robbery, murder...and then crimes like robbery, larceny...the state acts as the central point of data collection then funnels findings to the feds...who use block groups to assign score with 100 being the baseline. A heat map shows the level of crime...like this...pretty scientific
The data can be normalized for your specific location by establishing the baseline for the city, not the nation...so you can compare relative crime rates to tell where the worst stuff in the city is happening...it goes on a scale and can then be graded:
Anyone that creates a crime map based on anything but this methodology is playing a fools game...its simply inaccurate.
