Interpreting the Assault Maps

When looking at the assault map for Pulaski, remember that the rate of assault per resident may appear inflated when people visit the area during the day, but do not live there. For example, there are more retail establishments in the west part of the city. Many crimes are committed in retail areas in blocks where few people live. Red areas on the assault rate map do not always indicate danger for Pulaski residents who live there.

More issues arise with places like airports, parks, and schools.

Parks and designated recreational areas, of which Pulaski has 2, have the same problem. Of Pulaski’s 2,925 residents, few live near recreational areas. Because many people visit, crime rates may appear higher even for safe parks. Ultimately crime happens where people are, whether they live there or not. Before writing off an area as unsafe, look at both the crime rate and total crime maps, then consider nearby destinations that people may be visiting.
