What these numbers mean

Robbery sits near the bottom of Durham Region's crime category rankings, with fewer incidents than every category except the residual "other" grouping.

Downtown Oshawa's 7 incidents represent the largest neighbourhood count, though the margin over Ajax Northeast, Brock Ridge Pickering, and Ajax Northwest (4 each) is modest. The category's 4.5% share of citywide incidents underscores its relatively limited volume compared to assault and property crimes.
