Methodology and caveats
These pages summarize reported public records. Use source notes and methodology before drawing comparisons.
Reported crime data can lag the real world and may exclude the most recent days.
Case classifications can change after additional investigation or administrative review.
Map coordinates are approximate because the source data is redacted to the block level.
Counts on this site summarize reported incidents and should not be treated as a complete measure of safety.
Read the methodology page for pipeline details and the about page for source notes.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Short answers about data coverage, definitions, and how to read these pages.
How is crim sexual assault defined here?
This page follows the source dataset’s primary crime type field and does not reclassify incidents into a custom taxonomy for the route-level page.
Can categories change after publication?
Yes. Source agencies may update the classification attached to a case, which is why the importer performs idempotent upserts.
