Key figures
- 18,987 Chicago CPD incidents in this index have a report date in 2024-11.

November 2024 in the CPD extract
Membership in 2024-11 is a report-date filter. The 18,987 rows include every IUCR primary type in that window. A theft and a homicide each count as one. This page does not publish a type mix because type counts are not in the packet.
Thanksgiving week, Black Friday retail hours, and election-adjacent civic calendars are not packet subtotals. If those days produced reports, they are inside 18,987 when the report date falls in November. Do not treat 18,987 as a holiday-weekend statistic.
Occurrence date can sit outside November even when the report was taken inside it. This harvest does not split those columns. Read the overlay headers.
November 2024 in Chicago is 18,987 indexed CPD incidents with report dates in 2024-11. Thanksgiving week is not a separate cell. Airport and stadium rows, if present, still count as one incident each toward 18,987. They are not a named-venue indictment. Filter IUCR type on the overlay if you need one primary type; this page will not invent a type mix. Later harvests can still move 18,987.
Community areas versus the city headline
Official community area names appear on rows when CPD published them. The 18,987 headline is Chicago as a whole. Summing a few areas will not reconstruct 18,987 if other rows lack geography or were filtered.
Block-level pins are coarse public geography. They are not street-number identifications. Airport, stadium, and retail pins, if present, are report locations, not named-venue indictments.
LocalCrimeVault does not impute missing community areas. Rows without an area still sit inside 18,987.
On the 2024-11 overlay, official community area names are the geography this Chicago index supports when CPD published them. The 18,987 headline is not Austin, not Near North Side, and not any other single official area. Researchers who need one area should filter the table and caption the subset as a subset. Block-level coordinates, when present, are offset public-record locations. They do not identify a resident, a school, or a storefront by street number. CPD incident rows can lack an area; those rows still sit inside 18,987. LocalCrimeVault does not impute a community area to complete a pin map. Festival-corridor or lakefront density, if you observe it after sorting, is a table observation about report locations, not a packet fact about event crime. Keep 18,987 attached to Chicago as a whole for 2024-11.
