Burglary, Attempted reports in Los Angeles

What 1,485 Burglary, Attempted reports measure

1,485 rows are coded Burglary, Attempted as LAPD labeled an incomplete burglary. The count is attempt reports, not a count of dwellings or businesses and not a confirmation that entry occurred.

Completed Burglary is a different published string on the same Los Angeles feed. Do not add it to 1,485 unless you name both labels. The official published label is "Burglary, Attempted." LocalCrimeVault does not rewrite that string. The 1,485 figure is a count of incident records, not unique buildings, not forced-entry confirmations, and not recovered property.

How LAPD type labels work on this feed

Every row on the Los Angeles open-data incident extract carries a type field drawn from LAPD crime-code / MO category as published. If a report was written as Burglary, Attempted, it stays under that string here even when a reader might say "break-in that failed" or fold it into burglary. This page does not split the 1,485 rows into residential, commercial, or vehicle-adjacent subtypes the packet does not contain.

A primary type is not a criminal conviction and is not a UCR hierarchy rule applied after the fact. A single field event can involve more than one offense; the public extract typically exposes one published type per row. Readers comparing Los Angeles to another city should match definitions: other agencies may file similar events under criminal trespass or completed burglary names that never appear in this list.

Burglary, Attempted as a share of Los Angeles reports

Relative to 400,500 Los Angeles incidents in this extract, 1,485 reports coded Burglary, Attempted are about 0.4 percent of the city file. That share is a statement about how LAPD labeled the public feed, not a statement about which events matter more to a community.

Keep the denominator in view: 0.4 percent of the indexed city total is not 0.4 percent of all harm in Los Angeles, and it is not a crime rate. Rates need a housing-unit or population denominator that this packet does not include. Attempt volume and completed-burglary volume are separate series on this site.

Reports, not convictions

A Burglary, Attempted row means a report was taken and coded. It does not mean a prosecutor filed a charge, a judge entered a finding, or a person was identified. Treating 1,485 as a conviction tally would overstate legal outcomes and understate how much volume in a big-city feed never reaches court.

Los Angeles Police Department publishes the underlying incidents through LA Open Data. LocalCrimeVault indexes that feed. If the agency later updates a record, the public count can move. This page describes the extract as harvested, not a forecast and not a neighborhood safety score.

How to read the Burglary, Attempted table

The type hub lists the 1,485 rows with the fields LAPD shares publicly: date, coarse location, and related attributes. Block ranges are intentionally coarse. They are not street-number addresses, and they are not proof that a named household or business was involved.

Nothing in the 1,485 count tells you clearance, whether a door or window was damaged, or whether an alarm interrupted the event. Those outcomes are outside this extract. If a filter reduces the table, you have left the headline on purpose.

Where to go next in the Los Angeles data

Use the Los Angeles type hub for the live table of these 1,485 rows. The city-wide Los Angeles hub places Burglary, Attempted beside completed burglary so the 0.4 percent share is visible without mixing the two labels. A cross-city view of the same type slug exists; definitions still follow each agency's feed.

If you are documenting a method, record the extract and the 1,485 / 400,500 pair. Open-data crime files are living tables. A later harvest can add late-submitted reports or drop rows the agency has sealed or corrected. Cite the overlay table for row-level fields. Keep reports and convictions in separate sentences. Do not treat this guide as a live dispatch feed or a court docket.

The headline count on this page is 1,485 indexed reports for the published type label against a city file of 400,500 reports. LocalCrimeVault indexes the public incident feed for Los Angeles. If a later harvest moves the integer, the new snapshot is a new citation, not a silent revision of this page. Attempt rows remain separate from completed burglary unless you name both labels.

Questions

How many Burglary, Attempted reports are in the Los Angeles index?

This extract includes 1,485 Los Angeles incidents coded Burglary, Attempted. That is about 0.4 percent of 400,500 city incidents indexed on LocalCrimeVault. The figure counts police reports from LA Open Data, not convictions, arrests, or unique offenders. LAPD assigned the type; LocalCrimeVault does not reclassify charges.

Is Burglary, Attempted the same as burglary in this data?

No. This page covers only rows whose published type is Burglary, Attempted (1,485 reports). Completed burglary is a separate LAPD string. Mixing categories would inflate a structure-entry total the agency did not publish as one field. Use the city hub if you need the mix of all types against 400,500 reports.

Does a Burglary, Attempted incident mean someone was convicted?

No. Public incident rows are reports. They can remain in the open-data feed if no arrest was made, if charges were declined, or if the case was later unfounded and not yet removed. The 1,485 count should be read as report volume. Court records live outside this narrative.

Where does LocalCrimeVault get Los Angeles Burglary, Attempted counts?

Counts come from Los Angeles Police Department incidents published on LA Open Data and indexed here. Offense types are LAPD crime-code / MO category as published. LocalCrimeVault does not reclassify charges. Compare the type table with the Los Angeles hub if you need this label next to the other 400,500 city reports.
