About the data

Public records, with
context attached.

Source first

Every item links back to the City of Santa Cruz arrest and activity logs. The archive collects new PDFs daily before the city removes them.

Allegations, not outcomes

A police log is not a finding of guilt. Summaries preserve that distinction and omit arrestee names from discovery views.

Privacy by design

Map points are approximate and remain at block level. Sensitive locations can be withheld or further generalized.
