8/10/2009 Houston-- In an effort to
increase public safety and crime prevention awareness in Houston , the
Houston Police Department (HPD) has launched the first phase of a new
interactive crime tool for citizens
http://mycity.houstontx.gov/crime/ . The goal of this new crime
statistics website is to keep citizens informed of crime occurring in
areas where they live and work and to help HPD in solving crimes.
Users can track and map crime trends in neighborhoods throughout the city. Search for crime incidents, occurring as far back as 30 days or as recent as within the last 24 hours, by address, city council district, police beat, super neighborhood or zip code. Additionally, monthly Uniform Crime Report (UCR) Part 1 crimes by police beat and police district are available in tabular data form dating back to January 2006.
To view the new website, go to http://mycity.houstontx.gov/crime/. For additional information about the site, please contact HPD Public Affairs at public.affairs@cityofhouston.net or 713-308-3200.
