October – December 2015 Albany Crime Statistics Breakdown

Albany provides a 3-month snapshot of crime statistics every few months. I thought it would be interesting to geocode the crime statistics and then compare against the Election District and Ward lines.Β For your reference, you can see this map to find specific Wards and EDs in the city.

The top wards for crime in fall 2015 where Wards 3, 12 and 2. The least number of crimes occurred in Wards 15 and 14.
