This is crucial for comparison with state and national averages. **Population:** The population of the area is essential to calculate crime rates per 100,000 residents, which allows for standardized comparisons. **Median Income:** Median income can be correlated with crime rates to identify potential socioeconomic factors influencing crime. **Crime Rate per 100k:** Once the population is known, this can be calculated to benchmark the area's crime rate against other areas. **Violent Crime Rate:** This would be calculated by combining the assault and sex offense data (84 incidents) and dividing by the population (once known), then multiplying by 100,000. **Property Crime Rate:** This would be calculated by dividing the property crime data (84 incidents) by the population (once known), then multiplying by 100,000. **Safety Score/Grade:** These are subjective measures that typically incorporate crime rates, community factors, and resident surveys. They cannot be determined from the provided data alone. **Crime Map Data:** This would involve mapping the locations of the reported crimes (if available) to identify hotspots and patterns.

Without the additional data points, this analysis is limited to the raw counts and proportions of different crime categories.
