Woodland Hills centermost zip code is 91367.

I ran a test from January 1st through today and compared Woodland Hills to North Hollywood (in a two mile radius). Woodland Hills had 468 reported crimes and North Hollywood 713. Recognize most of the "crimes" are things like petty theft (shoplifting included).

While the number between areas is quite material, if you dig you would probably find the ratio of petty crimes to serious ones would favor Woodland Hills even more favorably.

Good for reported crimes but not quality of life neighborhood problems. Crimemapping.com won't tell you that your prospective neighbor is a nut or that the Hells Angels club house is next door.
