LAPD Crime Maps
This Google Map from the Los Angeles Police Department’s (LAPD) E-policing program shows up-to-date crime statistics for neighborhoods throughout LA. The LAPD say that "being informed about crime in your community is the first step in preventing future occurrences" and they hope that this map will go some way to informing you about crime in Los Angeles.
It is possible to search the crimes by date range and type of crime. It is also possible to adjust the range within which you wish to search.

There was an article recently about how the top map is often inaccurate. I live in LA and can say that it does miss a bunch of stuff.
