Ventura County Sheriff's Department

The Ventura County Sheriff’s Department has added a new feature to its website (http://www.vcsd.org). Now, both crime and arrest data can be retrieved for specific geographic areas within the Sheriff’s jurisdiction. By clicking on “Crime Stats” and selecting either crime or arrest information by specific area, the user can isolate data from a region of the Sheriff’s jurisdiction known as a Reporting District. Once the selection is made, a map of the county will open. The user can then select a specific Reporting District within the larger geographical area. Each Reporting District is fairly small; therefore, this will give the user far more precise information regarding crime and arrest information for that area. Instructions on how to use the system are also included on the website.
