About this data

Source

Measures the number of distinct drug crime arrests classified under "Narcotic Drug Laws" (charge group code 16) in Los Angeles. Data sourced from LAPD Arrest Data (2020-present). Each record represents a unique arrest (rpt_id is unique per arrest). Includes charges such as possession of controlled substances, possession for sale, transport/sell controlled substances, and related paraphernalia offenses. Note: This dataset uses LAPD area divisions (e.g., Hollywood, Harbor) rather than City Council Districts for geographic breakdown.

This data comes from 💊 Drug Crime, a public dataset maintained by Los Angeles on the city's open data portal.
