Disclaimer/Methodology
This map is not to be used to determine absolute safety of a neighborhood or location. This map is a tool for
determining relative safety of neighborhoods and points of interest in relation to other neighborhoods and points
of interest within a given metro area.
Raw data was obtained from http://crimemap.dc.gov/CrimeMapSearch.aspx, 1/1/2015 - 1/1/2018. Scoring is determined using a ratio of nearby property crimes to nearby violent crimes; a higher proportion of property crimes to violent crimes results in a better score. For a neighborhood, crimes are aggregated for the area within its bounds. For a particular point, crimes are aggregated for the area within walking distance. High density commercial and residential areas will have more reliable scores. Areas with both low property crime and low violent crime (such as industrial areas, highways, and parks) will have less reliable scores.
