Area evidence and limitations

Public-alpha research estimate centered on Houston's global city score. Super-neighbourhood variation uses the City of Houston's official 2024 HPD NIBRS polygon summary for selected violent, robbery, theft, burglary, vehicle-crime and fraud categories, balancing recorded counts with polygon-area density through a conservative robust transform. These are police records, not resident or visitor victimization rates; population, commuting, tourism, reporting, enforcement and land use materially affect the pattern. Overall only; not travel advice.

Before choosing accommodation

  1. Locate your intended stay on the map and check whether that area has evidence.
  2. Read what drives the local differences. A citywide score and an area estimate answer different questions.
  3. Check current local advice and your transport options separately. These estimates cannot assess a specific hotel, street or time of day.
