New and improved Ada County crime map provides more complete information

We get lots of questions about crime in Ada County.

People want to know what the most common crimes are, and where are they occurred.

Our new crime map  delivers those answers with our most accurate report yet.

When you pull up our new map, it shows reported crimes for all of Ada County, except Garden City, for the past seven days – but you can go back as far as Jan. 1, 2022.

The map includes crime reports from Boise and Meridian Police – and all ACSO areas, including Eagle, Kuna, and Star, along with unincorporated Ada County.

You can pick the date range in the filter box on the right top of the screen.

The map is updated every day. The types of crime are based on the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS), which is the nationwide standard used by the FBI to collect the same useful information about crime from all over the United States.

Our map provides more information than ever as we’ve been able to include reports of “Group B” NIBRS crimes (like DUI, trespassing, and drug offenses) that weren’t available for mapping before and are not available on similar maps. Those crimes appear in yellow.
