It breaks down King's leading incident categories — Other, Theft, Assault, Mischief, Fraud, and Break and enter — and adds year-over-year context against 2023.

Because the 2024 figure is a full calendar-year count, it can be compared directly with 2023. Year-over-year changes in these records reflect reported incident volumes, not per-capita risk.
