Analyzing Washington D.C. Crime



This is a map of schools color coded by the number of crimes committed within 1000ft. It is hard to tell if the drug free zone is effective without having the statistics from before the drug free zone laws were created. Currently 39% of all the crime is occurring within 1000ft of a school if the percentage was higher before the laws were created then it could be considered effective, but 39 percent is still very high in general.
