How the Property Crime Cost Is Estimated

Its cost is the replacement and repair value of what was taken or damaged, plus the policing, courts, and lost offender productivity that follow. Stolen and damaged property has a market price, which is why this total is easier to pin down than the human cost of violent crime in Montrose Verdugo City, La Crescenta, CA. All Cost of Crime figures come from scholarly research on the cost of crime. Read more about our methodology here.

Interpreting the Property Crime Maps

Property crime rates are measured per resident, so places where shoppers and commuters outnumber residents read high. Stores are where shoplifting, theft, and vehicle break-ins happen, yet almost nobody lives there, so the per-capita rate climbs. How strongly this shows on the map depends on retail density; the southeast part of the neighborhood has more retail establishments. A red commercial strip does not mean the homes nearby are unsafe.

Parking lots and transit stops follow the same pattern: heavy daytime traffic, few residents, so per-capita property crime reads high. To judge a residential block, weigh both the per-capita rate and the total number of incidents, and note what sits nearby.
