Interpreting the Murder Maps

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 murder rate map do not always indicate danger for Plato residents who live there.

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

Parks and designated recreational areas, of which Plato has 0, have the same problem. Of Plato’s 139 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.
