Behind The Rocks crime rates are not available from the FBI's UCR (uniform crime reporting) program, as a result, estimates are displayed in the table above.

This data is gathered from more than 18,000 law enforcement agencies which include tribal, state, county, college, university and city levels. However, the FBI does not report crime on a neighborhood level, therefore estimates were used to calculate the Behind The Rocks crime data.
