Interpreting the Vehicle Theft Maps

For example, there are more retail establishments in the central part of the neighborhood. Many crimes are committed in retail areas in blocks where few people live. Red areas on the vehicle theft rate map do not always indicate danger for Gross Point residents who live there.
More issues arise with places like airports, parks, and schools.

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.
