littleden.blogSource-backed city crime and safety data, with geography and time periods kept explicit.
CITY SAFETY RESEARCH

Check what the data actually says about a city.

Crime figures are easy to misuse. We keep the source, reporting period and geographic definition attached to every number—and we do not turn them into a made-up universal safety score.

RESEARCH PRINCIPLE

Safety is not one number.

Different datasets measure different things: reported offences, homicide, theft, robbery, assaults, crashes, or another defined indicator. We show the measure rather than pretending they collapse into a single universal score.

01

Source first

Official police, government and statistical sources are preferred. Third-party data can supplement them but does not silently replace them.

02

Geography stays attached

A municipality, police jurisdiction and metro area are not automatically the same place. Every observation keeps its own geography label.

03

Uncertainty stays visible

Recorded crime does not equal every aspect of personal safety. Missing or incomparable information is labelled instead of guessed.
