Crimes cover the Geist neighborhood (the boundary outlined on the map), over the last 12 months. Crime is compared per resident (rate), so a large, busy area can have a high total but a lower rate; crash counts are compared to the average Indianapolis neighborhood. Source: City of Indianapolis open data. The City’s neighborhood outlines run along street centerlines, so reports within about 20 meters of the outline are counted here, which means a report on a street shared by two neighborhoods counts toward both. Indianapolis’s crime data is the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department’s reports. IMPD’s public data holds no rape, sexual-assault or fondling reports at all, and the few reports filed under another offense (usually assault) after a rape or child-molestation call are labelled as such, rated as violent and shown at block level (about 100 meters) without a case number, so crime counts here understate violent crime. Indecent-exposure reports can only be recognised when the call type says so, so some are shown unmarked. The cities of Beech Grove, Lawrence, Speedway and Southport have their own police departments, as do the IU Indianapolis, Butler and Marian University campuses, the University of Indianapolis, the hospital campuses and the airport, and reports by the Marion County Sheriff and the State Police are not included, so those areas show no incidents because they are not covered. Administrative entries (lost property, warrants, death investigations, crash reports) and unfounded reports are not counted as crime, and the 4% of reports without map coordinates are left out. IMPD publishes crash reports about five weeks after the crash, so crash counts end 35 days before today. The feed also has a gap with no crashes at all from July 23 to August 1, 2026, which understates any window that includes those days. Injury and fatality counts are per crash, and the feed includes crashes the State Police handled on the interstates inside the city.
