This is an analysis for December, 2019 based on data posted by the Louisville Metro Police Department at https://data.louisvilleky.gov/dataset/crime-reports/resource/6d81fdf8-27e7-41ac-9ae4-1bfd8730f002
It is a Microsoft Excel file that requires just a touch of manipulation and sorting
As usual it includes the crimes reported within the boundaries of the historical Bon Air Neighborhood as defined:
1) Bardstown Road on the West
2) Hikes Lane on the South
3) Furman Blvd on the East and
4) Taylorsville Rd and the Watterson Expressway on the North.
The Analysis reflects events that happen on the lines and so some of the reports reflect what has happened just on the line and outside the geopolitical boundary of the neighborhood.
There were 26 total police reports in the neighborhood, down from 38 reports in November. There were eight reports in the 40220 section and 18 reports in the 40128 section.
The following were the reports from the 40220 section: (apologies for the formatting problems)

Regarding the 40218 section . . .
There were seven missing person reports from the 2300 block of Goldsmith. This is the sad story of kids running from Boys and Girls Haven. I have tended to avoid commenting about this out of empathy as my first job in the social services was working for a similar agency in another state with a similar problem. The reality is that many kids in foster care (especially residential) hate where they are and they just run from placements.
The 3300 block of Bardstown Rd had six reports and one of them was a missing person's report, which makes for five crime reports.
There were five remaining reports in the 40218 section as follows:

The trend continues to be encouraging. As I walk the neighborhood passing out the membership letter I see more houses with the different brand security cameras. I am guessing for the lack of car thefts that people are not leaving unlocked cars warming up and are locking them period.
Crime prevention works and the Bon Air Neighborhood Association is still interested in facilitating the formation of neighborhood block watches. The local news operations will likely start talking again about Metro Government budget woes and how it will affect the police department, and everything we can do as a neighborhood to prevent crime and empower Louisville's finest in the LMPD to handle more pressing matters elsewhere in the Sixth District.
