- Worth noticing
- Map locations are snapped to the block, not the exact address; the site points reporters to Minneapolis Police Department’s online reporting.
Field notes
The homepage frames the map as a way to make patterns visible beyond reports scattered across neighborhood feeds. Its displayed 30-day count is compared with the preceding 30 days, while map locations are deliberately generalized to the block. The project says it directs submitters to Minneapolis Police Department’s online reporting and is not affiliated with the department.
