Heatmap

Reported crime across Atlanta

The map plots Atlanta Police Department incident reports so the city's contrasts stand out. Northern and intown residential areas such as Buckhead, Virginia-Highland, and Morningside generally show lighter activity, while heavier reporting follows Downtown, parts of the Midtown nightlife corridor, and westside neighborhoods around the Bluff and English Avenue.

Incident points are approximate and reported to the block level. Use the map to compare neighborhoods, not to judge any single address.

Denser clusters point to more reported incidents nearby; lighter areas see fewer. Because APD geocodes to the block, treat the map as a comparison of relative activity between neighborhoods rather than a precise score for one address. Tourism, commercial density, and population all drive counts alongside genuine risk.
