SafeRoute is an Android based mobile application that provides GPS enabled crime statistics and safety levels for every city in the entire United States where enough crime data to report is present. The application even takes it a step further to provide safety levels (safe, moderate, dangerous) for every zip code in select major cities. No matter where you are in the United States, as long as your Android device is GPS enabled, SafeRoute will detect exactly where you are and tell you if the area is safe, moderate, or dangerous. You then just press "Crime Details" and you will see the detailed crime stats for that city which has come directly from the FBI statistics. Want to see what other SafeRoute users are saying about a particular US city?? Just press "Comments" and you can see what others are saying or you can even leave a comment yourself. You can also learn crime statistics and safety level by touching the area on the map, using city/state drop down box, or typing in the zip code.
So the next time you go somewhere you are not familiar with, make sure you use SafeRoute to know what are heading into!!
As of now, SafeRoute only provides crime statistics and safety levels for US cities; however, a more global solution may in the near future. Stay Tuned.
