Interpreting the Robbery Maps

When looking at the robbery map for Union City, remember that the rate of robbery 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 southwest part of the city. Many crimes are committed in retail areas in blocks where few people live. Red areas on the robbery rate map do not always indicate danger for Union City residents who live there.

More issues arise with places like airports, parks, and schools. Major airports, of which Union City has 0, always look like high-crime locations due to the large number of people and the low population nearby. Parks and designated recreational areas, of which Union City has 2, have the same problem. Of Union City’s 16,285 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. Before writing off an area as unsafe, look at both the crime rate and total crime maps, then consider nearby destinations that people may be visiting.
