What these numbers mean

Kensington-Cedar Cottage's incident profile is notable for the high proportion of 'Other' category incidents, which account for nearly two-thirds of its total. This differs from nearby areas like the Central Business District, where the incident count is significantly higher (275). The neighbourhood's low violent incident count (1) stands out compared to its overall activity, suggesting a focus on property-related or miscellaneous incidents.

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.
Neighbourhood boundaries: Defined by the upstream open-data source and may shift year-to-year, so direct comparisons over time can be affected by boundary changes.
Small counts are volatile: A neighbourhood with single-digit incidents one period and zero the next is not necessarily safer; it’s the sampling noise of small numbers.
Data window: 2026-04-14 to 2026-06-13.
