Welcome to the Crime Observatory of O‘ahu, or COO!
We translate crime statistics into trends and explain what they mean for O‘ahu’s residents and visitors.
If this is your first time at the COO, start with our primer on crime rates.
Each month, we analyze the data provided publicly by the Honolulu Police Department to understand crime trends on O‘ahu and put the headlines in perspective. When we find other datasets, we analyze those too. In addition to our monthly analyses, we offer regional spotlights and other specialized analyses to better understand crime on our island.
