Interpreting the Burglary Maps

When looking at the burglary map for 08069, remember that the rate of burglary 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 north part of the zip. Many crimes are committed in retail areas in blocks where few people live.

More issues arise with places like airports, parks, and schools. Major airports, of which 08069 has 0, always look like high-crime locations due to the large number of people and the low population nearby.

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.
