We tried to get the city to do something like this years ago. They couldn't be bothered. So a private citizen did it. It's amazing. You can find out which crimes have happened in any neighborhood of the city, based on a variety of factors like date, type of crime, zip code, address, etc. Chicago apparently did this first, other cities should follow - see if someone in your town can put this together.
Again, the city couldn't be bothered to do this, so a private citizen did it FOR FREE.
There's also this new DC crime blog you should check out here.
