Data coverage

The dataset covers a continuous three-month period from late April through mid-June 2026. Readers should note that neighbourhood boundaries are approximate and based on the upstream open-data portal's classification, meaning two adjacent areas may overlap. Boundary definitions may vary year to year, so comparisons across different reporting periods should account for potential geographic adjustments rather than assuming strict consistency in how the area is mapped.

Mischief and break and enter round out the top categories with 12 and 6 incidents respectively. These figures reflect the specific mix of property and violent offences recorded within AREA3 during the reporting window, highlighting a heavier concentration of financial and property-related activity.
