Most crime never reaches the police, so these are reported crimes, a floor rather than the full count. In 2024 about half of violent crimes (48%) and about 3 in 10 property crimes (31%) were reported to police (U.S. Justice Department, National Crime Victimization Survey). Rates also depend on how completely each agency reports to the FBI. City figures are the Anaheim Police Department's own reports.

The tallest is Walnut Canyon (187 ft). “High hazard” describes what lies downstream (people would probably die if the dam failed), not how likely the dam is to fail.
