About WDWActiveCrime

A data-driven look at public safety activity around Walt Disney World, built to inform—not sensationalize.

What This Site Does

WDWActiveCrime monitors publicly available calls-for-service information in the Walt Disney World area and presents it in a clear, easy-to-browse format. The purpose is to help visitors, Cast Members, and locals understand patterns in public safety activity—not to make claims about guilt, outcomes, or intent.

You can use the site to see trends such as:

  • When the area is most active (by hour and day)
  • Which call types appear most often
  • How activity changes over time (weekly and monthly patterns)
  • Where calls tend to cluster geographically

Where the Data Comes From

Call information shown on WDWActiveCrime is sourced from publicly available law enforcement feeds and records. These are official public records provided by the appropriate agencies. WDWActiveCrime does not create or modify the underlying facts of any call.

Behind the scenes, the site’s tooling routinely:

  • Checks official public sources for updates
  • Standardizes timestamps, call types, and location fields for consistency
  • Stores call snapshots in a database so trends and reports can be generated
  • Builds charts and summary views for the website and social channels

How to Interpret What You See

A call appearing on this site does not automatically mean a crime was committed or that anyone was arrested. Many calls are precautionary, administrative, or resolved without further action. Call classifications can also change as situations develop.

The focus is on context and patterns. When individual incidents are discussed, the goal is accuracy and clarity, while avoiding unnecessary alarm.

Independence & Affiliation

WDWActiveCrime is an independent project and is not affiliated with:

  • The Walt Disney Company (or any of its subsidiaries)
  • Any law enforcement agency or government office
  • Any news organization or media company

Names, trademarks, and location references such as “Walt Disney World” and “Disney Springs” are used for descriptive purposes only.

Why This Project Exists

Theme-park destinations are unique environments where tens of thousands of people gather daily. Public safety data helps answer practical questions like: “Is this normal activity for the area?” and “What kinds of calls show up most often?”

By organizing and visualizing public call activity, WDWActiveCrime aims to:

  • Support realistic expectations about area activity
  • Encourage responsible, fact-based discussion
  • Highlight trends without exaggeration or fear
