Oakland here is a Chicago community area
On this page Oakland is the official Chicago community-area name attached to 1,403 indexed CPD incident reports. It is not a different city’s Oakland and not a regional nickname. The count follows the city’s community-area geography in the extract. If a row’s assignment in the open file is this community area, it is in the 1,403. If the assignment is elsewhere, it is not.
Keeping the city name in the title and H1 is how searchers who mean this Chicago slice find the right table. The numbered overlay still exists for researchers who join on area codes. Both routes index the same 1,403 reports. LocalCrimeVault does not expand Oakland to match a larger South Side nickname or a different municipality.
1,403 as part of 410,083 citywide CPD records
Oakland’s 1,403 reports are about 0.34 percent of 410,083 published incidents, or about one in 292 citywide rows. A third of one percent of a large municipal file is still more than a thousand local records. Cite the share with 1,403 attached so the community area neither vanishes nor looks like its own city.
0.34 percent of reports is not a per-person rate. Population is not in the packet. The share is not a violent-crime share either, because there is no offense split in the facts. The Chicago crime hub holds the 410,083-report parent. Stay on that extract when comparing Oakland with another Chicago community area.
