Feels like Crime is Up in Nashua? Check the Arrest Logs

Part of living in a community is understanding the ebb and flow of crime. Many commenters on Nashua Patch have noted what seems like an uptick in violent crime this summer. 

The annual crime statistics will bear that out, once posted at the end of 2013. You can also check out a year's worth of arrest logs, if you've got some time on your hands.

In the meantime, I would refer you to the latest figures, posted on the Nashua Police website, which provides year over year information on crime in the city, by category.

Neighborhood Watch Groups are another way to gauge the safety of your neighborhood - community policing officers work closely with groups to discuss local crime and safety issues, and neighbors can learn best practices for keeping an eye out for one another, especially during vacation season.
