# Amherst Police Department Data
Extracting useful information from data from the Amherst, MA police department.
We try to understand how:
* How police response changes based on race and gender of suspects.
* Where, geographically, police spend most of their time.
* How these have changed over time.
Inspired by the Justice Department's report on the Baltimore Police Department.
## Playing
```bash
docker run -p 8888:8888 -v $(pwd):/home/jovyan/work jupyter/scipy-notebook
```
## Data
All data form the Amherst PD records department, big thanks to them for being
so helpful.
Currently just looking at summary stats of gender, race, by year.
Haven't analyzed PDF arrest logs yet. Hoping to get them in an easier format.
