2018 Annual Crime
This Annual Crime dataset provides the raw data needed to identify trends in citywide crime. This guide corresponds to the Annual Crime data posted on the city data portal here: https://data.austintexas.gov/Public-Safety/GUIDE-Annual-Crime/csxt-6s3k/data
Note: The official crime counts used to produce the Annual Crime and Traffic report are available only as aggregate counts and use the FBI's counting method (i.e., victims, premises). The data contained in this dataset counts incidents instead; it approximates the aggregate counts, but will vary slightly.
