How these scores work

  • The score is a citywide rank, not a grade. Each district's incidents over the past 90 days are weighted by how strongly they signal public-space danger, divided by the district's land area, and ranked against the rest of Saint Paul. Higher = quieter. The "weighted incidents per square mile" column is the exact number being ranked — the ordering follows it.
  • Not every incident counts equally. Shots fired and robbery carry the most weight; theft carries little; domestic incidents and narcotics cases carry the least, because they say more about relationships and police patrols than about the street outside.
  • Commercial corridors count in full. Districts containing major retail nodes — the Midway, Grand Avenue, downtown — score lower than their residential blocks feel, because shopping districts concentrate incidents. The reverse also applies: districts with large parks, industrial land, or river flats spread their incidents over more area.
  • For where you actually live, use the map. Saving an address on the dashboard scores just the area around it — within the same district, a residential street and a shopping district can be 80 points apart.
