Search West UniversityCrimes cover the West University neighborhood association (the boundary outlined on the map), over the last 12 months. No per-resident crime rate is shown for this area (part of it is policed by a separate police department, such as a campus force, whose reports are not in the city data); crash and code case counts are compared to the average Tucson neighborhood. Source: City of Tucson open data (Tucson Police Department crime and collision reports). TPD publishes each incident at its block (the street centerline) and association outlines run along streets, so incidents within about 30 meters of the outline are counted here, which means an incident on a street shared by two neighborhood associations counts toward both. Tucson’s public data holds only what the Tucson Police Department handled, and its collision records are TPD reports too. It leaves out South Tucson (its own police department), unincorporated Pima County (Pima County Sheriff), the University of Arizona campus (UAPD), Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Tucson International Airport and the Tohono O’odham and Pascua Yaqui lands. About 1 in 26 violent-crime reports, and 1 in 11 sexual-assault reports, carries no map location, and reports reach the data for about two weeks after they are filed, so the newest days are incomplete. Counts here understate violent crime and cannot show that an area has little of it. 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.
