From the police blotter (aka Crimes)

If you would like to see how our community stacks up against others in Scottsdale you may do so from an interactive map provided by Scottsdale police department here: CRIME MAP. This how the crime map for our community and the surroundings look for the last twelve months (if you click on the image you can see it full-size):
The map is powered by Google maps so you can zoom, drag, view satellite and so on.  The map is interactive, you may add or remove crimes, change the date range (careful, that doesn't stick too well).  The map above is for the last twelve months.  Inside our gate we have had the following crimes:
Simple Assault - 3 (all at night and quite late, my guess is domestic)
Trespassing- 1  (I'm guessing this is domestic-related too)
Vandalism - 3 (yes, we have teenagers)
Residential burglary -1
Theft, other - 1
Not too bad given my assumptions on the nature of the crimes. It is essential that we make sure that our gate guards only admit those they are authorized to admit and no others to keep us low on the property crime statistics.  All these crimes occurred in 2010, we appear to have been a well-behaved bunch in 2011.
FYI, this is DC Ranch.  They seem to suffer more residential burglaries than we do behind some of their gates.  A lot of the other crimes there are from construction sites.
