The map contains exact locations of homocides from the 2000s to now. You can zoom in far enough to see the neighborhood the murder(s) happened in. I’m sorry that the site is primarily in Norwegian, but you should still be able to zoom around. Wonder of there’s a global map that’s that detailed.
We have that too, it’s called google maps
Looks like there is a little bit of space for a new “northernmost” murder left; southernmost is already a done deal.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
Aww how inspirational
Lots of nazis in the south for real.
Well… It’s not “Norway has a map of murders”, but a newspaper in Norway has made a map of murders in Norway.
Interesting that this map also specifies who was the victim.
I assume it’s to humanize the victims of homicides, rather than portraying them as mere statistics on a spreadsheet.
Kinda sad tho
It makes it all the more sad, I feel.
It really does. Lots of young people on there.
How is this possible don’t they have to keep them anonymous?
Here’s the reason for why the data is public (according to them)
This is why VG publishes an overview of all Norwegian murders
All murders have ripple effects. For the immediate family, for the local community and for society at large. VG has mapped all murder cases from 2000 to the present day.
Openness about who, where, how and why people are killed is important in order to be able to conduct a knowledge-based debate about murder as a social problem. It is only when the public knows what is happening that it is possible to implement preventive measures.
In recent years, a number of miscarriages of justice have been uncovered. VG believes that openness about criminal cases and legal processes is an important safety valve for avoiding prejudgment - and strengthening legal certainty for both victims and suspects.
Through its work on the report series “The unsolved deaths”, VG revealed in 2023 that the official Norwegian statistics on unsolved murders were missing several murder victims. This underlines the need for an ongoing public overview of all murder cases - regardless of police assessments.

The Nordics are generally less reluctant with personal data compared to e.g. Germany.
There’s also a lot of tracking of who is accessing personal info. Most often you need to provide your own identity to look something up like property or vehicle owners if it’s not given freely by the individual on a public site.
But there are web sites where you can obtain information that e.g. in Germany would be afaIk not public, see e.g. hitta.se
Interesting, is that not info people have voluntarily input? It looks like 1881.no which AFAIK is like old school yellow pages where you put your info in and it’s combined with publicly available things like the business register.
You don’t send in information to gulesider/180/1881, it’s automatically added unless you specifically request to have your information removed for whatever reason. They’re great sites to dox yourself for those of us that don’t use a fake name on the Internet.
Yes, however a lot of this information would not be publicly available in Germany or only with valid concern, e.g. birthday, car ownership, value of the estate.
Did you mean Homicide map, or is it indeed called a Homocide map?
I don’t know, were all the victims gay guys?
I think they were all homo sapiens.
What a homogenous group.
I can say with confidence that at least some call it homocide map, with the evidence you’ve provided. 🧐
Note to self, don’t visit Olso, visit Stockholm. /s
But only for shopping /s
Homicide* … unless you actually mean homocide.
✨Dyslexia✨
You ever notice how the third map’s actually different? How there is suddenly a red dot down at the bottom about where San Antonio is?
All three are different
All are different except the middle one.
I was gonna post this if you didn’t, lol.
And that’s why it’s important to look at these numbers pr capita in a given area if we want to draw useful conclusions
Which also requires additional consideration for low population areas that can have their statistics swing wildly.
Like the insane murder rate in Midsummer County? (If the tv serial is a valid source of murder incidents)
If Scandinavian homicide serials were accurate there would be nobody left!
Yep, like when there’s a remote mountain town of five people and two of them get murdered.
Hell, even one is 20% of the population!
All I’m seeing is if you’re in the northern half of Norway, stay away from water and you won’t die.
You’ll die before someone has a chance to murder you.
stay away from water and you won’t die.
I’ve actually found the opposite to be the case worldwide.
How do I report murders that aren’t showing up on the map? I’ve tried refreshing a million times and I’m 100% sure the murders are finalized?
You can try murdering your neighbor, see if they show up
Have you tried turning the victim(s) on then off again? If that doesn’t fix your issue I suggest you call tech support. Their local hotline is 112, and if you’re looking for the international one it’s 911. Both lines are toll free.
Nah he should install Arch
I’d like to see such a map for mass shootings in the U.S.
Per year or all time?
All time from 2000 - 2024
Last week
Damn… seeing the faces of the victims makes the impact even bigger.
People live in cities.
I’ll believe it when i see it
Look with your special eyes!
The brown one?
With the data I have at hand, people mostly seem to die in them.
People die in cities.*
Easy. Just make it illegal to die in a city and deport old people to the nearest farming region
So what you’re saying is that cities were made by governments in order to control the population, and to some degree reduce overcrowding? /s
Most people die in hospitals. – Avoid hospitals if you value your life. /s
All people that have died were at one point living. Avoid living at all costs.
Ah yes. Why did I not think of that
BIG CITY BIG CRIME
The post is about the existence of the interactive map
It’s time to light up this map! /s
Yes officer, this comment right here.
Hmm, that’s weird, they missed one.
What?
