Criminal Trespass reports in New York City

Key figures

  • 2,383 New York City incidents are coded Criminal Trespass — about 0.6% of 400,500 city reports.
  • The type string is NYPD offense classification as published; this site does not recode it.
  • Criminal Trespass in this feed is not burglary and not robbery.
  • Rows are police reports from city open data, not convictions or unique offenders.

What 2,383 Criminal Trespass reports measure

2,383 rows are coded Criminal Trespass as NYPD labeled the report. That published string is not burglary and is not robbery. NYPD kept those as separate types. The official published label is "Criminal Trespass." LocalCrimeVault does not rewrite that string.

The 2,383 figure is a count of incident records, not unique buildings and not unique people. Adding burglary into this bucket would mix an entry-of-premises label NYPD published apart from trespass. Readers who want both should use the city hub rather than summing this page with another type.

How NYPD type labels work on this feed

Every row on the New York City open-data incident extract carries a type field drawn from NYPD offense classification as published. If a report was written as Criminal Trespass, it stays under that string here even when everyday speech says "trespassing." This page does not split the 2,383 rows into degree or location subtypes the packet does not contain.

A primary type is not a criminal conviction. A single field event can involve more than one offense; the public extract typically exposes one published type per row. Other agencies may file similar events under trespassing without the criminal prefix that New York City uses here.

Trespass and burglary are neighboring ideas in everyday speech and separate NYPD types in this extract. Criminal Trespass is 2,383 rows. Burglary is outside that total. This extract is one harvest of NYC Open Data as indexed on LocalCrimeVault, not a building-access log.

Criminal Trespass as a share of New York City reports

Relative to 400,500 New York City incidents, 2,383 reports coded Criminal Trespass are about 0.6 percent of the city file. That is a small slice next to high-volume larceny and harassment types. A smaller share does not mean the label is unused; it means this string is less common in the published extract.

Keep the denominator in view: 0.6 percent of the indexed city total is not a crime rate. Rates need a population or property-stock denominator that this packet does not include.

Reports, not convictions

A Criminal Trespass 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 2,383 as a conviction tally would overstate legal outcomes.

New York City Police Department publishes the underlying incidents through NYC 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 Criminal Trespass table

The type hub lists the 2,383 rows with the fields NYPD 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 building or resident was involved.

Nothing in the 2,383 count tells you clearance or whether a person was removed from a premises. Those outcomes are outside this extract. If a filter reduces the table, you have left the headline on purpose.

A coarse location on a Criminal Trespass row is not a unit number and not proof that a named property owner filed the report. The 2,383 count does not describe whether someone was asked to leave. Quote a filtered view only if you name the filter.

Where to go next in the New York City data

Use the New York City type hub for the live table of these 2,383 rows. The city-wide New York City hub places Criminal Trespass beside Burglary so the 0.6 percent share is visible next to a related but separate label. 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 2,383 / 400,500 pair. Open-data crime files are living tables. Cite the overlay table for row-level fields. Keep reports and convictions in separate sentences.

The headline count on this page is 2,383 indexed reports for the published type label against a city file of 400,500 reports. LocalCrimeVault indexes the public incident feed for New York City. 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, a victimization survey, or a court docket. If a later harvest moves the integer, the new snapshot is a new citation, not a silent revision of this page.

This extract includes 2,383 New York City incidents coded Criminal Trespass. That is about 0.6 percent of 400,500 city incidents indexed on LocalCrimeVault. The figure counts police reports from NYC Open Data, not convictions, arrests, or unique offenders. NYPD assigned the type; LocalCrimeVault does not reclassify charges.
Is Criminal Trespass the same as burglary?
No. This page covers only rows whose published type is Criminal Trespass (2,383 reports). Burglary is a separate NYPD label. Mixing categories would inflate totals. Use the city hub if you need the mix of all types against 400,500 reports.
Does a Criminal Trespass 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 2,383 count should be read as report volume. Court records live outside this narrative.
