Analysis

Over the past 24 months, the 12-month rolling average crime rate has dropped from 334 Part 1 Crimes per 100,000 population to 304 Part 1 Crimes per 100,000 population, which equates to a 9% decrease.  It should be noted that a portion of this decrease could be attributed to lower crime totals throughout the city during and immediately following Hurricane Harvey.
