Interpreting the Theft Maps

When looking at the theft map for 92253, remember that the rate of theft 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 north part of the zip. Many crimes are committed in retail areas in blocks where few people live.
