Dangerous Drugs police reports in New York City
New York Police Department open data in this index include 10,539 incidents coded Dangerous Drugs in New York City. That figure is a harvest count of one primary-type string on NYC Open Data, NYPD’s Dangerous Drugs stamp, not Chicago’s Narcotics recode. Rows are police reports, not convictions, and 10,539 is not a safety ranking of New York City.
Key figures
- New York City has 10,539 indexed reports coded Dangerous Drugs.
- Dangerous Drugs is NYPD’s stored class, not a recode of another city’s narcotics type.
- The join is New York City plus Dangerous Drugs, not a borough ranking.
- Rows are New York Police Department open-data police reports, not convictions.
- A raw count is not a finding that a city is safer or worse.
Dangerous Drugs × New York City is one NYPD join
The join keeps primary type Dangerous Drugs and city New York City. 10,539 is the only integer this packet publishes. Dangerous Drugs is the NYPD complaint label as published. It is not a recode of Chicago IUCR Narcotics. Cross-city drug totals would invent a crosswalk this packet does not contain. Source: municipal open-data police reports on NYC Open Data, using NYPD complaint / Penal Law labels.
How NYPD stores Dangerous Drugs complaints
This page is not an overdose dashboard, a treatment census, or a conviction docket. Related published types on the same feed include Robbery, Miscellaneous Penal Law, and Vehicle And Traffic Laws. Those strings are other hubs. Adding them to 10,539 would invent a combined total the packet does not contain. Dangerous Drugs in New York City is the live overlay for this pair.
New York City publishes this feed through NYC Open Data. New York Police Department assigned the type; LocalCrimeVault does not reclassify charges. The five boroughs are unpublished splits on this packet, so no borough-and-precinct subtotal is quoted. New York City crime hub places this type beside other New York City labels without merging them.
A Penal Law drug class, not an overdose dashboard
A pin on the overlay is a report location, usually a coarse block range, not a named household and not proof that a court later used the same statute. Arrest flags, when present on the source row, are not convictions. Possession versus sale splits and substance splits are unpublished. Do not invent those subtotals. Do not rename this class Narcotics.
Dangerous Drugs is the NYPD complaint label as published. It is not a recode of Chicago IUCR Narcotics. Cross-city drug totals would invent a crosswalk this packet does not contain. Possession versus sale splits and substance splits are unpublished. Do not invent those subtotals. Do not rename this class Narcotics. Cite 10,539 only as Dangerous Drugs in New York City. Dangerous Drugs across cities shows the same type slug in other cities that publish a matching string; coding still follows each agency’s file, so those tables are not a standardized national series.
Why dangerous-drugs rows are not a borough ranking
10,539 Dangerous Drugs reports in New York City is a file statistic. It is not a rate, not a household risk score, and not a ranking of New York City. Population, housing stock, tourist volume, and how often people call the police all move raw counts without appearing in this packet. Correlation between city and count is not causation.
A later news total that drops attempts, folds a sibling type into Dangerous Drugs, or uses a different harvest window will not match 10,539. Unfounded reports can remain on NYC Open Data until the source file updates. If a charging document later uses a different statute, the public incident row may not change.
