We had a requirement for the same functionality, but had to go down the route of doing it ourselves. As in the UK specifically, wards (our version of the administrative districts) are not publicly available. We've come up with the link below (currently in testing as the url implies) which allows us to show all manner of information broken down in the administrative areas. As you can see we currently have it displaying information about the areas and their councillors for starters : http://selfserve.northampton.gov.uk/mycounciltest/ We've written it in such a way that all the stuff which relates to us (Northampton) is contained in a seperate JSON configuration file. This means the same page can be used to display details for any city in the world just by creating a config file for that city. We'll be open sourcing the lot shortly. The 'report a problem' option which currently doesn't do anything can be seen working on the link below ( we need to merge the two pages ) : http://selfserve.northampton.gov.uk/nbc/report_it.html As you can see we use streetview (if it's available) to report not only the location of a problem within our town, but also capture the image from streetview to allow our operatives to know exactly what the person was referring to when they get to that location. We're also working on it mapping out incidents of things, such as the homicide map you linked to, albeit ours are for mundane things like abandoned vehicles or fly tipping. One they are plotted on the map above are then broken down into a league table based on the administrative districts and shown in the left hand information window.
