Edgewater Crime Map

Far North lakefront community area

Edgewater is the official community area immediately south of Rogers Park along the lake. The 5,257 total is Edgewater only. Uptown sits south of Edgewater on the official map and has its own extract. Rogers Park is a third file. 5,257 does not include either neighbor.

Lakefront and inland blocks share one community-area tag in the headline. This packet has no beach-only subset, so none is stated. 5,257 is the official-area count.

Citywide 410,083 reports are the parent. Edgewater's 1.3 percent share is a partition of that parent, not a rate.

A high or low raw count is not a safety grade. Edgewater's 5,257 reports describe documentation volume inside an official boundary. Commercial corridors, arterial streets, and housing density can all raise row counts without appearing as separate columns in this packet, so they are not used here as explanations.

When you chart Edgewater next to another community area, use the same city extract (410,083) and the same unit (incident reports). Mixing arrest counts, shooting dashboards, or 311 noise complaints into the same bar as 5,257 is a category error.

Open data without a scene list

5,257 Edgewater rows are published CPD incidents. They are not convictions. They mix whatever locations CPD coded to this area, including residential streets and commercial strips, without a setting subtotal in this packet.

This page does not attach nightlife anecdotes to the number. Type fields belong on the incident table.

Edgewater is about 1.3 percent of indexed city reports. If that share looks small, remember the city file is 410,083 rows; a one-percent slice is still thousands of public records. If it looks large, remember it is still one official community area, not a citywide score.
