Oakland Crime Watch is a project that complies crime data sourced from the Oakland Police Department into interactive data dashboards, to help you stay informed.
How do I use it?

Where is the data coming from?
The data is updated daily and comes directly from the City of Oaklands Open Data website. Please note that full datasets may take up to 90 days to be fully processed due to reporting delays.
Our Story
OaklandCrimeWatch was built by Knowi, a data analytics company with Headquarters right here in the heart of Oakland.
This project was borne out of our own curiosity of overall crime trends in our beloved Oakland. We hope you find it useful.
