To determine the city and state, a GEOID lookup would be required. Once the location is identified, demographic data such as population and median income can be obtained from sources like the US Census Bureau. With the population data, the crime rate per 100,000 residents can be calculated by dividing the total number of crimes (35) by the population and multiplying by 100,000. Similarly, violent and property crime rates per 100,000 can be calculated using the respective crime counts. The violent crime rate would be calculated based on the assault and sex offense counts (29 + 1 = 30). The property crime rate would be based on the burglary and larceny counts (1 + 2 = 3). A safety score and grade are subjective assessments that typically consider factors like crime rates, police presence, community initiatives, and other safety-related indicators. Without a predefined scoring system, it's impossible to assign a specific safety score or grade based solely on the provided crime data. Crime map data, which visually represents the spatial distribution of crimes, is not included in the provided data. Zip code data is also not directly available from the GEOID. *Insights (pending additional data):** The high proportion of assault offenses suggests a potential need for community-based violence prevention programs. The relatively low number of property crimes could indicate effective security measures or other factors influencing property crime rates. The presence of arson incidents, though infrequent, warrants attention due to the potential for significant damage and harm. Further investigation into the specific circumstances surrounding the sex offense is necessary to understand the nature of the incident and implement appropriate prevention strategies.
