OK, maybe you will, but crime maps are a popular thing with our cousins over in the USA. They have much more relaxed data protection laws, that some people can argue for days about whether is a good or a bad thing. Whatever the answer, it means they can produce some quite interesting stuff on crime. Ignoring the many, many maps of registered sex offenders in the US, here are some maps that you might be interested in.

  • Seattle 911 - My particular favourite, live 911 incidents in Seattle.
  • Berkeley Crime Log
  • Boston Crime
  • Chicago Crime Database
  • City of Topeka Crime
  • Crime in Philadelphia
  • Richmond Crime
  • The marvellously named Ypsilanti, Michigan Crime maps
  • Netherlands Crime - OK, this isn’t in the US, but is still a great site!

    • I hope you enjoy looking at these sites! Please let me know if you know of any more. For more cool Google Maps, check out the superb Google Maps Mania.
