Crime reports in Gage Park, Chicago

Southwest Side official area, 3,942 reports

Gage Park's total is the CPD extract for this official community area. Chicago Lawn, West Elsdon, and Brighton Park are different areas. 3,942 does not include them. A Southwest Side custom region would be a sum you document yourself.

Gage Park the neighborhood is not only the park of the same name. This packet has no park-grounds-only filter. 3,942 is the community-area report count.

Citywide 410,083 reports are the parent file. Gage Park's 1.0 percent share is a slice of that parent, not a rate.

LocalCrimeVault does not adjudicate Gage Park incidents. The 3,942 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 3,942. Record the vintage when you republish.

Do not infer victim counts, unique offenders, or cleared-case rates from 3,942 alone. Those metrics need other fields, and many of those fields are blank or withheld in open data. The honest statistic is report volume.

Public records without extra color

3,942 is documentation volume from CPD open data. It is not a conviction count. It is not a roster of residents. Identifiers may be withheld under publication rules.

This overlay does not list individual cases. Offense types belong on the incident table if CPD published them. They are not in this packet.

Share language: Gage Park holds about 1.0 percent of the 410,083 indexed Chicago reports. Keep "about" in the sentence; the percentage is rounded. The exact fraction is 3,942 divided by 410,083.

About 1.0 percent of indexed Chicago reports

3,942 ÷ 410,083 ≈ 1.0 percent. Irving Park and Washington Park have similar shares in this index. The three files remain separate geographies.

Chicago Lawn's raw count in this index is higher than Gage Park's 3,942; the two Southwest Side names are easy to mix in speech. Keep the integers on the correct pages.

No population divisor is in the packet, so none is used.

For city context, step up to the Chicago crime hub. For Gage Park rows, stay on the neighborhood table. This guide exists so the headline is not mistaken for a conviction dashboard or a victimization survey.

Gage Park has 3,942 indexed CPD incident reports in city open data (LocalCrimeVault), of 410,083 citywide; reports not convictions; Chicago Lawn excluded; not a park-grounds-only total.

Using the Gage Park table next to the city hub

The neighborhood hub lists the Gage Park rows behind the 3,942 total. Sort and filter there for dates and published CPD type codes. This packet has no type mix, so this guide will not invent one. If a type filter reduces the table below 3,942, you have left the headline on purpose; say so in the caption.

The Chicago hub is the parent file of 410,083 reports. Gage Park's about-1.0 percent share only means something against that parent. Do not paste 3,942 into a story that already used a different city total. Pair the two integers, name CPD open data, and keep the reports-not-convictions clause on the same screen as the number.

If you export rows, you are still looking at police reports. Geocodes may be offset to a block. Some addresses are blank. Community-area assignment can change when CPD repairs a location. 3,942 is the indexed snapshot for Gage Park, not a promise that a query on data.cityofchicago.org tomorrow returns the same integer.

Residents reading Gage Park should treat 3,942 as a public inventory of police documentation, not as a personal risk score. Household risk depends on time, place, and many events that never become rows. The city file of 410,083 reports is the frame; Gage Park's about-1.0 percent share is bookkeeping inside that frame. For row details, use the incident table rather than this prose overlay.

Repeating the claim in plain language: Gage Park has 3,942 indexed Chicago Police incident reports in LocalCrimeVault, out of 410,083 citywide, about 1.0 percent of that published file, and those rows are reports rather than convictions. That sentence is the entire numeric claim this page is built to support.
