Precinct and community district lines are drawn by different agencies and do not line up. Read each row twice. The first figure is how much of the 78th Precinct sits inside that district. The second is how much of that district this precinct covers. Every number elsewhere on this page is cut to the precinct boundary, so it includes everything the precinct patrols regardless of which district it falls in. For figures cut to a district instead, open the district page.
Counts are reported NYPD complaints, arrests, and shooting incidents from NYC Open Data, each placed by its own coordinates inside the precinct boundary. A complaint is a report, not a conviction. Counts are raw and not adjusted for population. Built by Mike Racioppo, District Manager, Brooklyn Community Board 6. Public safety hub →
