Mapping the Top 20 Hot Spots for GPD CFS

The Troublemaker recently posted the “2006 Top 20 Crime Locations” for Greensboro. I was having a hard time visualizing all those addresses in relation to one another, so I decided to put them on one map (above.) I noticed that the one place where the dots clumped together was downtown. I also broke the list into categories (shown above), and I found that seven of the 20 addresses belong to the city or county. Interesting, huh?

  1. Very nice work, Michele.

  2. Cara Michele

    Thanks, Joe.

  3. And 3 of them are within walking distance of my home. It’s always nice to be reminded of our lack of police protection and enforcement.

    Kudos to you CM for pointing them out.

  4. Wow. Impressive. Nice work.

  5. Thanks, Mary. That’s a 2006 list, by the way. I’ll try to do a 2007 map when we get this year’s numbers. It’ll be interesting to see what changes, if anything.
