New: Notable crime ranking changes from 2022 to 2023

There were 26 notable ranking changes in major crime categories when comparing the rankings from the year before to 2023. The lower the rank the worse the reported crime is in that neighborhood.

Denver neighborhood crime rate rankings, 2023

The lower the ranking number, the worse the crime rate in that neighborhood. So if, say, Lincoln Park was ranked #1 in business burglaries, that means Lincoln Park has the highest population-adjusted rate of business burglaries out of Denver's 78 neighborhoods.

Note that neighborhoods with fewer residents but higher foot traffic, such as CBD, DIA, Civic Center and Auraria, may be disproportionately represented in the rankings.
