Henderson, NV Crime Map
SpotCrime is now mapping crime data in Henderson, NV!
We are mapping calls for service data which comes from the CAD (computer aided dispatch) system of the Henderson police department.
Each incident is marked with the description 'This report is from Henderson Police Department calls for service call log. ' to clarify to viewers that it is calls for service data and not reported data from the RMS (records management system).
CAD data is great data to map because it gives an inside look at what the police department responds to on a daily basis - anything from a loud disturbance nextdoor to breaking up a fight.
CAD data is different from RMS data in a couple of ways. Since CAD data is calls for service, some CAD data points may change. For example, a resident may call 911 and report that there was a theft when in fact they were a victim of a burglary. Also, some CAD incidents may not require a report or followup. For example, 911 may be called for a loud dog barking and a report isn't needed.
We prefer to map both RMS and CAD data because this data together gives a very clear picture of what's happening in your neighborhood.
Henderson is a part of the Las Vegas Metropolitan area found southeast of Las Vegas not too far from the world-famous Las Vegas Strip with a population of just under 260k. Notable residents from Henderson include Celine Dion, Flava Flav, Pierre Omidyar (founder of eBay), and Marie Osmond.
