Interpreting the Murder Maps

When looking at the murder map for Ridge, remember that the rate of murder 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 southeast part of the neighborhood. 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 Ridge residents who live there.

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

Parks and designated recreational areas, of which Ridge has 0, have the same problem. Of Ridge’s 4,716 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.
