San Francisco’s Tower Of Prostitution

Doug McCune builds mountains. He builds mountains with 2009 crime data from the city of San Francisco. Their height is related to how often the specific crime took place in an area. The mountains mapped above show the occurrences of Prostitution, which compared to Larceny and Assault looks like an easy hike.
