How to read this
  • These are reports made to the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office — not charges, not convictions, and not a finding that anything occurred.
  • Incidents are recorded at the hundred block, not the exact address, so a point on the map is a block, not a house.
  • The figure covers a circle drawn around one centre point. That circle is not the boundary of The Habitat — it takes in streets, businesses and roads outside the community, and may not reach every street inside it.
  • Report volume tracks how many people, businesses and roads fall inside the circle. The same circle over a highway or a shopping centre will always hold more reports than one over houses alone, so comparing two communities on this number tells you very little.
  • The HOA Collective publishes these counts exactly as the agency records them. We do not score, grade, rate, rank or compare communities, and we draw no conclusions from them. What they mean for you is yours to judge.
