In late 2010, Urban Strategies Council was contracted by the City of Oakland in partnership with the Oakland Police Department to perform crime analysis for OPD. This relationship is collaborative and builds on the skills and capacities of both the OPD and Urban Strategies Council's Research & Tech team. We are providing detailed crime maps on a weekly basis to department staff as well as longer term analyses to support data-driven, intelligence led policing strategies in our city.

These hot spot maps depict reports of Violent Crime, Property Crime, Burglary, Robbery, and Shooting and are arranged by Command Areas for the year of 2010. A hot spot is an area with a higher intensity of crime than the surrounding area and is useful as a visual guide to identify areas of high crime incidence.
