Today we rolled out police report data for Bellevue, Wa, the first of many cities that we plan to integrate into POSTACRIME. You can search for these crimes by address or zip code and see this crime data displayed on an easy to understand, map type format right along side of the user generated crimes. We're providing you the most comprehensive resource for crime information available, bringing together crime information posted by you and police department information available to the public in one place, POSTACRIME.COM.
Want to know what kind of crime happens on your route to work or the gym? Do you want to know if it is safe to leave your car overnight at your friend's house? You can use POSTACRIME to search for and be more aware of crime where it is pertinent to you.
Here's how it works. In many local police departments, when an officer takes a report from a crime victim, they enter it into an electronic database and make that data available to the public. POSTACRIME then works with the local police to obtain this data and import it daily into our website for you to search.
We will be adding new cities to POSTACRIME each week. Create an account and we'll notify you when this data becomes available in your area or send us an email and we'll contact your police deparment and ask them to become part of POSTACRIME.COM.
As always, we look forward to receiving your comments and feedback.
