What stands out in Alameda County

Data from Polco GPAL
Standouts compare Alameda County with communities in California or of similar population size. Surprises are where the measured figure was unusually far from what Polco's model expected. Each fact gives its year; public data runs one to two years behind.

In 2023, Alameda County was less favorable than communities of similar population size on property crimes cleared.
