For example, there are few retail establishments in the city. Many crimes are committed in retail areas in blocks where few people live. Red areas on the drug-related crime rate map do not always indicate danger for Miranda residents who live there.

Parks and designated recreational areas, of which Miranda has 0, have the same problem. Of Miranda’s 134 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.
