Wintersville, OH Crime Analysis

Based on the provided crime data for the area represented by GEOID 16000US3986184, a total of 15 crimes were recorded. The most prevalent crime category is assault, accounting for 11 incidents, all classified as "Assault Offenses." Property crime represents a smaller portion, with a total of 4 incidents. Within property crime, "Larceny/Theft Offenses" are more frequent with 3 incidents, while "Destruction/Damage/Vandalism of Property" accounts for 1 incident. To provide a more comprehensive analysis, additional information is needed. The GEOID 16000US3986184 represents a specific census tract. To determine the city and state, this GEOID would need to be cross-referenced with a geographic database. 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, providing a standardized measure for comparison with other areas. The violent crime rate would be derived from the assault statistics, while the property crime rate would be based on the combined incidents of larceny/theft and vandalism. A safety score and grade typically incorporate various factors beyond raw crime numbers, including crime trends, community policing efforts, and resident perceptions of safety. These metrics are often generated by specialized data analysis companies. Crime map data, which visually represents the spatial distribution of crimes, would require access to a more granular dataset with specific incident locations. Similarly, zip code level data would necessitate aggregating crime data across all census tracts within each zip code. Without the city and state name, population, and other contextual data, it's challenging to provide deeper insights. However, based solely on the provided data, the area appears to experience a higher incidence of assault compared to property crime. Further investigation is needed to understand the factors contributing to these crime patterns and to assess the overall safety and well-being of the community.
