Maricopa Police Department data from a 12-month period ending April 30 details every crime committed that year, sorted by neighborhood and type of crime.
Aside from 7 Ranches, which only had 18 households, Maricopa Manor had the highest per-household crime rate of one crime per household, triple that of the second-most dangerous neighborhood, Desert Cedars.
To the surprise of many, no doubt, apartment complexes by and large did not see crime rates higher than single-family neighborhoods.
The community with the lowest crime rate was Province, with 16 crimes per 1,000 households, although Province also had the most vehicle thefts.
Tortosa had the most total crimes.
Editor’s note: These numbers include crimes committed immediate to a neighborhood, like a main crossroads or business on the opposing side of a residential street. The crime rate is based off built units as of May 13. Crimes per 1,000 households.
