Crimes cover the Palms Neighborhood Council (the boundary outlined on the map), in the 12 months of data through Oct 17, 2026. Crime is compared per resident (rate), so a large, busy area can have a high total but an average or below-average rate. Source: City of Los Angeles open data. LAPD rounds each offense to its hundred block (about 100 meters), so an offense on a street shared by two Neighborhood Councils can be counted on either side of the outline. LAPD’s public data places each offense on its hundred block, not at an exact address, and offenses appear a week or two after they occur. It covers only what LAPD handles: the Port of Los Angeles (Port Police), the UCLA, CSUN, Cal State LA and Occidental College campuses (campus police), the West Los Angeles VA grounds, LAUSD school police and freeways (CHP) are policed by other agencies, some airport and transit incidents are handled by other agencies, and the independent cities around and inside Los Angeles (Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Culver City, Santa Monica and others) are not included. Open data updates on a delay, so the most recent records may be incomplete. For general information only — not legal, financial, or real-estate advice.
