How to read this

It shows crime reported to the police. Many crimes are never reported.
Levels compare areas within Philadelphia. The same level in another city does not mean the same.
It is not a prediction, and it says nothing about any person or building.
Please do not use it for decisions about housing, lending, insurance or employment.

Philadelphia does not separate shoplifting from other thefts, so shopping areas count somewhat higher here than in other cities.
Locations are generalized to the hundred block by the Philadelphia Police Department.
