Recent trend

The dataset reflects incident reporting for August 2026, scaled to the city’s year‑to‑date totals through July. Because the upstream open‑data portal groups records by neighbourhood boundaries that are periodically revised, the spatial definition of The Hill may differ from previous years. This can affect longitudinal comparisons, as counts are tied to the boundary set in effect for each reporting year. Users should keep these boundary changes in mind when interpreting trends across time. Consequently, year‑over‑year percentage changes should be viewed with caution.
