Data coverage

Neighbourhood boundaries in Vancouver may vary slightly over time, so comparisons with other years should account for potential shifts in geographic definitions.

What these numbers mean

Marpole's incident profile is heavily skewed toward the 'Other' category, which accounts for nearly all reported activity. This is unusual compared to nearby areas like the Central Business District, where the incident count is higher and likely more diverse. The low number of violent incidents (1) and property crimes (theft and mischief) suggests a relatively quiet period in terms of more serious offences.

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.
