Crime Stats (con't.)You may also select the types of crime to be displayed. Keep in mind that not every report will be displayed. As a rule most major crimes are the ones you will see. A chronological list of the crimes appears on the left side of the screen. If you select a crime form there, it will indicate on the map which crime and the location you have chosen. Conversely if you click on one of the symbols displayed on the map, it shows basic information about the crime including the date of occurrence, the CR number, classification and the hundred block. Also, at the top of the page you can select “analytics” and view different trends for each type of crime. Again you must first select “ Lakewood” from the drop down menu and also a time period in this case “daily, weekly or monthly.” Please take time to use the “View Demo” option on the bottom of the home page. |
