Englewood Crime Map

State the extract without a morality play

Englewood's 8,342 figure is a count of indexed CPD incident records for this South Side community area. National coverage has often used the name as shorthand. This page does not. It reports the public total, the city denominator of 410,083, and the difference between a police report and a conviction.

West Englewood is a different official community area. Its reports are not inside 8,342. If a story says 'Englewood' while mixing both areas, that story is not quoting this page.

Residents, workers, and people passing through can all appear in location-coded reports. The open-data file does not label those groups. 8,342 is a geography total.

CPD's community-area field is a polygon join, not a neighborhood nickname. Englewood's 8,342 total follows that polygon. Informal names people use for a few blocks inside the area do not get their own integer in this index. If you need a tighter geography, filter published coordinates or blocks on the table, and say that you left the 8,342 headline.

Sealed, restricted, and some sensitive incident types may be missing or sparse in the public file. 8,342 is therefore a lower bound on "everything CPD ever wrote down," not an upper bound on "everything that occurred." Quote it as published reports.

What 8,342 does not mean

It does not mean 8,342 convictions. It does not mean 8,342 people convicted. It does not mean every report was a violent offense. This packet has no type breakdown, so none is written.

It does not mean LocalCrimeVault verified each row against a court docket. The site indexes CPD's published extract. That is the entire claim.

About 2.0 percent of the 410,083 indexed Chicago reports sit in Englewood. That arithmetic (raw count over city total) is the only extra number this page adds to the packet. It does not become a ranking unless you compute one across every official community area yourself and show the method.
