Recorded is the police record: crime records the Honolulu Police Department publishes as open data. It is what most people mean by "crime here."

The four signal cards; the orange Recorded card shows 2,384 official HPD crime records with a small trend line.
Recorded is the orange card: HPD crime records for the area and period.

What it is, and when it begins

Every entry is an offense HPD logged in its public system. Records begin in August 2025. We show them by category, area, and time, with rates per 1,000 people present by day and a likely range for each rate (see Reading the numbers). Time-of-day patterns use the time HPD took the report, not when the offense occurred.

What it can tell you

What offenses were recorded, what kinds, how a category changed over recent months, and how an area's rate compares with the Oahu average. It comes straight from HPD, which makes it the most authoritative signal here.

What it cannot tell you

It cannot show crime that was never reported to police, which is why we keep Reported as a second, separate signal. The newest month is provisional and can still rise. And a count is never a safety verdict: a higher number can simply mean more visitors by day, or more people reporting.

Totals, not single incidents. The dashboard shows Recorded as totals for each area, never individual incidents. To look up a single public record, use the free SSH Search map.
