Los Angeles police reports — 2022-12

Year-end report dates, not a retail ledger

The 19,923 rows are every indexed LAPD incident whose report date falls in 2022-12, across published crime-code categories. Christmas, New Year's Eve, and year-end retail hours are not packet subtotals. If those days produced reports, they sit inside 19,923 when the report date is in December. This page will not attribute the month total to any holiday or shopping corridor.

Report date is the membership rule. An occurrence earlier in the fall that was reported in December is in. A December occurrence reported in January 2023 is not in this slice. The packet does not quantify that lag.

Crime-code labels on the overlay are LAPD's published strings, including dollar thresholds in the label itself when the source stored them that way. Filter for one type if you need it. The month page does not recode charges.

Los Angeles in 2022-12 is 19,923 indexed LAPD incidents with report dates in 2022-12. Year-end retail corridors are not a shopping-season crime rate. Christmas and New Year's Eve sit inside 19,923 only when the report date falls in December. Crime-code labels can carry dollar thresholds. This page does not recode them. The 19,923 mix is unfiltered published categories. Counts are reports, not convictions.

December geography is still city-wide

LAPD geographic division names appear when LAPD published them. The 19,923 headline belongs to Los Angeles as a whole, not to Hollywood, not to Central, and not to a council district.

Retail corridors and transit hubs may show more pins in a December table. That is a table observation about report locations, not a packet fact about shopping-season crime. Offset coordinates are not venue identifications.

Blank division fields still count toward 19,923. Filtering them out of the overlay will shrink the visible set below the headline.

On the 2022-12 overlay, LAPD geographic division names are the geography this Los Angeles index supports when LAPD published them. The 19,923 headline is not Hollywood, not Central, not Newton, and not any other single division. Council districts, Census tracts, and informal Westside or Valley nicknames are different maps. They will not add to 19,923 unless the division field is the field LAPD stored. Location fields are often offset to a block or reporting area. They are not door-level identifications. Blank division fields still count toward 19,923. LocalCrimeVault does not fill them. Stay with the division table and the city-wide 19,923 when you cite 2022-12.

Working the 2022-12 table

Sort by date, crime-code category, or division. Arrest fields are not convictions. Missing coordinates stay blank. LocalCrimeVault does not impute geography.

Later harvests can move 19,923 as LAPD adds late rows or revises old ones. Cite the integer as the current indexed count for 2022-12 report dates.

The 2022-12 table is the working surface for these 19,923 rows. Sort by date, by published crime-code category, or by geography. An arrest field, if shown, is still an attribute of a LAPD report. It is not a charging decision and not a guilty finding. Unfounded or later-reclassified rows can remain until the source extract changes. Missing coordinates stay missing. CAD events that never became LA Open Data rows sit outside the total. Unreported events never enter 19,923. Sealed or restricted records that LAPD does not publish never enter 19,923. If a type filter reduces the table, the caption should say the slice is no longer the city-wide 2022-12 headline. LocalCrimeVault does not reclassify charges inside the 19,923 mix.

What 19,923 is not

It is not 911 call volume, not unique defendants, and not a prosecutor file. Unreported events never enter the extract. Sealed records LAPD does not publish never enter the 19,923.

This page does not compare December 2022 to November 2022. Those other counts are not in this packet. Keep 19,923 attached to 2022-12.

Hub, overlay, and citation

The 2022-12 overlay is the live table for these 19,923 rows. The Los Angeles hub is the parent city view for other months, offense types, and division pages. Use the hub when December is the wrong window.

Citation: 19,923 LAPD incidents with a report date in 2022-12, indexed on LocalCrimeVault from LA Open Data. Counts are reports, not convictions. LocalCrimeVault does not reclassify LAPD charges.

A durable citation for this page names the agency, the date field, the month, the integer, and the indexer: 2022 LAPD incidents with a report date in 2022-12, indexed on LocalCrimeVault from LA Open Data. Add that counts are reports, not convictions, and that report date can differ from occurrence date. If you filtered the overlay to one type or one division, say so; that subset is no longer 2022. Later harvests can move the integer as LAPD adds late-submitted rows or revises old ones. Do not mix this 2022-12 total with another month's count on a chart unless that other integer is actually in hand from its own packet. This file's facts support 19,923 only.

Documenting the 2022-12 harvest for Los Angeles

Los Angeles 2022-12 remains 2022 indexed LAPD incidents with report dates in 2022-12 in this harvest. The overlay is the live table. The city hub is the parent view for other months and for type or geography pages that are not limited to 2022-12. Keep the reports-not-convictions clause next to 2022. LocalCrimeVault does not dramatize individual cases and does not turn 2022 into a ranking of neighborhoods, boroughs, or divisions.

Open data lags live dispatch. 2022 is the published extract LocalCrimeVault indexed for 2022-12, not a live CAD feed and not a promise that a portal query tomorrow returns the same integer. Record the month label 2022-12 next to 2022 if you republish the figure so a later snapshot is not silently mixed into the same sentence.
