KXAN covered a news story revealing the highest crime rates by zip code, as reported by the Austin Police Department for 2005. The link to Full Reports can be found on their website. Users can download a pdf of crime statistics by month for each of the zip codes in Austin.
Among the top zip codes are high rental areas such as 78701, 78702, 78704, 78741, 78744, and 78753. Some of the zip codes, such as 78701, 78702, and 78704 are centrally located and, therefore, popular investment areas since they are also near the college campus'. It should be noted that most instances were non-violent property theft.
