Most of what's reported here is property-related — vehicle crime alone is 46% of reports — rather than violence against strangers, though the full mix below is worth a look.

How is the East Isles safety index calculated?

SafeRoute weights each incident reported to the Minneapolis Police Department by severity (violence weighs more than shoplifting), sums the last available period within 1 km of the neighborhood center, and normalizes against citywide crime rates onto a 0–100 scale — higher is safer. It describes reported crime only; it is not a guarantee of safety. The scale is calibrated within Minneapolis, so scores compare neighborhoods to each other and cannot be read against another city's.
