Check out your SpotCrime Scottsdale crime map!
Scottsdale is located just outside of Phoenix, AZ in Maricopa County. The city has a population of over 217k, making it Arizona's sixth largest city. In addition to Phoenix, Scottsdale is bordered by Tempe, Paradise Valley, and Fountain Hills. According to our Trulia widget, the media cost of a home in Scottsdale currently is $549k!

With help from our local media partner, KTVK AZFamily.com, we'll be updating the maps weekly. We're happy that the Scottsdale PD has the courage to be open and transparent with their crime data. Transparency and unrestricted access to public crime data is a great way to keep the public informed and aware of what's going on in their area. Want to get your department on board? Have them contact us.
