More Crime Report Web Sites - Including an IPhone app.

The last post mentioned a site called CrimeReports.com. Here is a similar site http://www.spotcrime.com/
that also provides you with recent statistical information of crimes for chosen location.

I find it a little harder to use because this site requires the user to sign up. (free) Something I really liked which CrimeReports.com did not offer was an application dedicated to the iPhone. *see below

Next time you’re looking for a house or rent make sure to check out the neigborhood area with SpotCrime. And while you are at it you might also want to run it through national sex offender registry. These reports may not be 100 % accurate but should be enough to give you a basic idea about the place.

Features:
  • View latest criminal activity reports in your area.
  • Crime reports are collected from local news sources and police records.
  • Crimes are classified by type: Theft, Burglary, Robbery, Assault, Arson, Shooting, Arrest and so on.
  • Currently supports only large cities within US. More towns are being added.
  • Access and Search from iPhone (www.spotcrime.com/iphone.php).
