Key figures

  • Chatham has 9,022 indexed CPD incident reports (9022 of 410083).
  • Chicago's indexed total is 410,083 reports citywide.

  • Counts are police reports, not convictions.

Chatham as an official community-area extract

9,022 is the CPD incident total coded to Chatham in the indexed feed. The South Side community area is a distinct row in the city's official community-area list. Avalon Park, Greater Grand Crossing, and South Shore are not included in 9,022.

Commercial streets and residential blocks share one community-area tag in the headline. This packet has no street-level rollup, so this guide does not claim a 'main street only' number. Filter the table if you need a tighter geography the rows can support.

Citywide 410,083 reports remain the comparison frame. Chatham's 2.2 percent share is a slice of that frame.

LocalCrimeVault does not adjudicate Chatham incidents. The 9,022 figure is an index of CPD's published rows. If a row later disappears from the city portal, the live table can move while this packet still states 9,022. Record the vintage when you republish.

Do not infer victim counts, unique offenders, or cleared-case rates from 9,022 alone. Those metrics need other fields, and many of those fields are blank or withheld in open data. The honest statistic is report volume.

How to state the number in public

Say: Chatham has 9,022 indexed CPD incident reports. Do not say: Chatham has 9,022 convictions. The second sentence is not supported by open police data.

Say: reports published through the city portal. Do not say: every crime that occurred. Unreported events and non-CPD matters are outside the extract. The 9,022 figure is published CPD documentation.

Share language: Chatham holds about 2.2 percent of the 410,083 indexed Chicago reports. Keep "about" in the sentence; the percentage is rounded. The exact fraction is 9,022 divided by 410,083.
