Frequently asked questions

What does this San Francisco crime map show?
It shows 6,471 public-safety calls-for-service recorded by San Francisco Police Department in San Francisco. Each call records that an officer was dispatched to a location — not that a crime was confirmed.
Are these confirmed crimes?
No. A call-for-service is a dispatch record. Many calls resolve as unfounded, civil matters, or routine community contact. Only an investigation and prosecution determines whether a crime occurred.
When is San Francisco busiest for police calls?
In the current snapshot, the busiest hour is around 12:00 with 431 dispatches recorded in that hour. The 22:00–06:00 overnight window accounts for 1,442 calls.
What types of incidents are most common in San Francisco?
In the current snapshot the three most frequent types are narcotics paraphernalia, possession of, battery, warrant arrest, enroute to outside jurisdiction. These are not necessarily the most serious — most calls are service or traffic-related, and our category bar lets you filter by violent, property, medical, traffic, disorder, drugs, suspicious, or service.
How often is the data updated?
San Francisco Police Department refreshes its public file daily. We re-ingest each refresh and republish here within minutes.
Where does the data come from?
Directly from the San Francisco Police Department's public open-data feed. Data: DataSF (San Francisco Police Department). Reported incidents — not arrests. Coordinates are approximated to the block level. Original feed: https://data.sfgov.org/Public-Safety/Police-Department-Incident-Reports-2018-to-Present/wg3w-h783.
Does this map show names of people involved?
No. Even if the upstream feed includes names, we strip them on ingest and never display them. We never republish booking photos. If you need verified record information, contact the originating agency.
Is San Francisco a safe place to live?
That question depends on far more than dispatch counts — neighbourhoods within the same city can vary widely, and call volume reflects police activity as much as underlying conditions. Use this map as one signal among many, alongside San Francisco County and statewide statistics, local news, and direct agency contact. We do not characterise places as "safe" or "dangerous".
Can I get an alert when a call happens at my address?
Saved-address alerts are coming with our Pro plan. Until then, this page will always update automatically when the upstream feed refreshes.
How do I request a correction or removal?
Use our correction request page. The originating agency remains the system of record — if the agency corrects or suppresses a record at the source, our next ingestion reflects the change automatically.
