CivicScout counts LAPD reported offenses that carry a location, clipped to the Venice Neighborhood Council outline (LAPD places each offense on its hundred block, so offenses on a boundary street can fall on either side). Traffic crashes and food inspections are not available for Los Angeles (LAPD’s collision feed stopped updating in March 2025), so their absence here means no data, not no incidents.
