This comparison is based on reported crimes only and should not be interpreted as a
definitive statement about the safety of either neighborhood. Factors such as
population density, reporting culture, and data lag all affect these figures.
Data source: Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) crime records,
sourced from the
LA City Open Data Portal.
Covers reported incidents from 2020 to present, updated regularly.
Only active, non-duplicate records are counted.
Neighborhood boundaries correspond to LAPD patrol divisions, not city-defined
neighborhood boundaries. An incident is assigned to a division based on the reporting area recorded
in the original data.
Limitations: Reported incident counts reflect only crimes that were reported to
and recorded by LAPD. Under-reporting means actual incident rates may be higher.
Data may have delays of several days to weeks depending on the source dataset.
A reported incident does not imply guilt or conviction.
