1. ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY
GMeter is provided strictly for entertainment and general informational purposes only.

The Score may not reflect actual crime conditions in any specific area, neighborhood, street, or location. You should not rely on GMeter scores when making any personal, financial, residential, travel, or business decisions.
2. DATA SOURCES AND ACCURACY
GMeter aggregates publicly available data from sources including the FBI Crime Data Explorer, the U.S. Census Bureau, and local government databases. While we strive to present this data accurately, we make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, regarding the completeness, accuracy, reliability, timeliness, or suitability of any data presented through the Service. Crime data and demographic statistics are inherently limited and may be outdated, incomplete, or subject to reporting inconsistencies beyond our control. The GMeter Score is a derived index and is not an official government metric.
