LCC Map of Reported Crime Incidents in Laurelhurst   2010  2009   2008

Seattle Police Department Reported Criminal Activities

My Neighborhood Crime Map compiles Seattle Police incident reports. Incidents are represented on an interactive map of the city and assigned an icon for crimes such as robberies, assaults, graffiti, theft, car prowls and homicides. The map also includes miscellaneous reports such as animal complaints, illegal dumping and trespassing. The map is updated within 6 to 12 hours of an incident report. Incidents may be removed from the map when police investigation reveals that no crime occurred. Reporting any incidents will ensure that residents have an accurate representation of police activity. Privacy is also protected on each report posted.

The Seattle Police Department Neighborhood Crime Map can be found at:
