In late 2010 Urban Strategies Council was contracted by the City of Oakland in a partnership with the Oakland Police Department to perform crime analysis for the OPD. This relationship is collaborative and builds on the skills and capacities of both the OPD and Urban Strategies Council's Research & Tech team. The Council 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.

To see a summary table of all crimes in Oakland compared with the past three years and our innovative Crime Calendars check out this post.

These maps represent crime reports that have been aggregated to police beats for a number of key crime types including robbery, shootings, burglary, property and violent crimes as well as homicides. The accompanying table shows the beat level report summaries for the city as a whole. You can download the complete set of beat level maps here (large 28MB PDF) or click on the maps for a popup slideshow in your browser.
