Citizen Service: Crime Stats

I'm going to do a series of posts on how people can find things out for themselves. Of course we here at NAG are always available to help you, but it's good to know where to go for things. Some of these might seem obvious, but believe me, everything posted is something I have been asked! And if you have something you'd like to know, email us at blog@nag-brooklyn.org.

So, crime stats. This one is easy. All you have to do is go to the NYPD website, click on "Crime Statistics" in the lower left of the blue column, and you will be taken to this page. Scroll down to Brooklyn, click on the 90th or 94th precinct— the ones covering North Brooklyn, and you'll get a downloadable PDF with the latest stats. They are updated weekly, and they give you the percent changes over time, as well as breaking out various types of crimes.

Also, each of our precincts has its own page with phone numbers for Community Affairs, Domestic Violence, etc.

Fun fact: The 94th has been visited by both Solidarity leader Lech Walesa and Pope John Paul II (when he was a Cardinal). That's why the street in front of the precinct was renamed.
