Lol, I can't tell if you're making a joke, but just in case you're serious or for anyone else reading this who isn't sure: right, that's the most common criticism of those apps, that they tend to stoke fear needlessly. Of course, they report actual shootings but if you're not Batman, why do you need realtime updates on every shooting? Also, for every legitimate shooting, idiots report every other loud noise, of which the city has many. I do not consume those apps and have felt very safe in Point Breeze for two years now.

For add'l crime data, PPD has an interactive map but it's a little annoying to use (you have to draw the boundaries you want to search then select the time range, and it only shows up to like 1k results, so don't make your search too large): https://www.phillypolice.com/crime-maps-stats
