Crime Score API
A crime score should be easier to explain than a spreadsheet of incidents. CrimeScore turns location signals into a clear score, grade, and component breakdown that teams can use inside apps, dashboards, and map experiences.
The API response is intentionally simple at the surface: risk score, grade, geography, and model metadata. That makes it easier for product teams to show a clear signal without asking users to interpret raw crime tables.
When you need more detail, Pro and Scale plans add components and contributors so your team can explain what is driving the score.
ZIP codes are useful for broad search, reporting, and market pages. Address and coordinate-based workflows usually need a more local score too.
CrimeScore scores Census block groups for local context, supports county and state map layers for broader browsing, and is adding ZIP-code lookups as a higher-level API surface.
CrimeScore is a statistical location-risk signal. It is not a policing tool, a personal risk score, or a substitute for legal review.
Protected attributes are excluded from scoring, and prohibited uses are called out in our terms and methodology.
