About this dataset
Reporting basis: Counts reflect incidents reported to police only. Under-reporting — especially for sexual assault, fraud, and minor theft — means actual incidence is higher than these figures show.
Not a per-capita rate: These are absolute incident counts. Comparing one place’s counts to another without normalising for population can mislead — see crime rates per 100,000 for population-adjusted figures.
Different taxonomies: Cities classify offences slightly differently. Our pipeline normalises labels into 13 standard categories, but the source taxonomies are not identical.
Different reporting windows: Two cities may have different start and end dates. Read side-by-side counts as selected-window incident totals, not population-normalised risk or full-year totals unless the page explicitly says so.
