New Criminals Don't Climb


San Francisco's criminals are a lazy lot, if nosotros are to believe Crime Doesn't Climb. The Crime Doesn't Crime map uses the Google Maps API Elevation Service to map criminal offence statistics inwards San Francisco past times height.

The map clearly shows that at that spot is approximately correlation betwixt the levels of criminal offence as well as elevation. However at that spot could hold out a discover of reasons why criminal offence levels drop-off sharply at higher elevations. For example, at that spot could hold out less population density at higher altitudes or properties as well as streets at the transcend of hills mightiness hold out to a greater extent than affluent as well as meliorate policed.


GeoSpocket has posted a thoughtful reply to Crime Doesn't Climb. GeoSocket's reply does accept into trace organisation human relationship population density. final that when yous "account for population, the human relationship betwixt criminal offence frequency as well as elevation gets a lot shakier".

It appears that inwards approximately pocket-size areas of San Francisco elevation levels may conduct keep lower levels of criminal offence only fifty-fifty inwards those areas 'the model tally is nevertheless weak'.
