Interpreting the Vehicle Theft Maps

When looking at the vehicle theft map for 78552, remember that the rate of vehicle 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 east part of the zip. Many crimes are committed in retail areas in blocks where few people live.

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.
