How is the Iberville safety index calculated?
SafeRoute weights each crime-related 911 call the NOPD was dispatched to by severity (violence weighs more than shoplifting), sums the last available period within 1 km of the neighborhood center, and normalizes against citywide rates onto a 0–100 scale — higher is safer. New Orleans is scored on dispatch calls rather than filed reports, because NOPD's report series carries no location data — so a call here means police were sent, not that an offense was confirmed. It is not a guarantee of safety. The scale is calibrated within New Orleans, so scores compare neighborhoods to each other and cannot be read against another city's.
