Robbery police reports in Chicago

Robbery × Chicago is one IUCR join

The join keeps primary type Robbery and city Chicago. 10,984 is the only integer this packet publishes. Chicago Police Department primary type Robbery is the IUCR force-or-threat taking family. Burglary is a different primary type. Theft without that force element is a different primary type. Source: municipal open-data police reports on the Chicago Data Portal, using IUCR primary types.

This page is not a CTA crime ranking, a conviction docket, or a 77-area safety score. Related published types on the same feed include Burglary, Theft, Weapons Violation, and Battery. Those strings are other hubs. Adding them to 10,984 would invent a combined total the packet does not contain. Robbery in Chicago is the live overlay for this pair.

Force-or-threat taking, not IUCR burglary

Chicago publishes this feed through the Chicago Data Portal. Chicago Police Department assigned the type; LocalCrimeVault does not reclassify charges. Chicago’s 77 official community areas are unpublished splits on this packet, so no community-area subtotal is quoted. Chicago crime hub places this type beside other Chicago labels without merging them.

How CPD stores IUCR robbery

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. Do not merge burglary into robbery. IUCR treats building entry and street taking as different primary types. Armed versus strong-arm splits are unpublished.

Chicago Police Department primary type Robbery is the IUCR force-or-threat taking family. Burglary is a different primary type. Theft without that force element is a different primary type. Do not merge burglary into robbery. IUCR treats building entry and street taking as different primary types. Armed versus strong-arm splits are unpublished. Cite 10,984 only as Robbery in Chicago. Robbery 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 Chicago robbery rows are not a community-area ranking

10,984 Robbery reports in Chicago is a file statistic. It is not a rate, not a household risk score, and not a ranking of Chicago. 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.

Hubs for Robbery in Chicago

Use Robbery in Chicago for the live table of these 10,984 rows. Chicago crime hub is the Chicago parent. Robbery across cities is the type parent across cities. All crime ties lists other offense-and-city joins built the same way. Prefer those tables after later ingests if this snapshot and the overlay diverge. Armed/strong-arm splits, names, and community-area subtotals are unpublished here.

A later news total that drops attempts, folds a sibling type into Robbery, or uses a different harvest window will not match 10,984. Unfounded reports can remain on the Chicago Data Portal until the source file updates. If a charging document later uses a different statute, the public incident row may not change.

This packet has no population denominator, so no per-capita rate is published. It has no unique-offender count, no clearance rate, and no loss-dollar total. Community-area splits of Robbery are unpublished. Naming a community-area subtotal would invent a number. Keep Chicago Police Department named when you footnote 10,984. Reports stay reports. Armed/strong-arm splits, names, and community-area subtotals are unpublished here.

Keep the citation narrow: Robbery in Chicago, 10,984 municipal open-data police reports, Chicago Police Department coding as published, with no invented contractors, recipients, or donor names. Armed/strong-arm splits, names, and community-area subtotals are unpublished here.

Robbery in Chicago is a pair, not a ranking of cities and not a ranking of offense types. Later portal extracts can move 10,984; prefer the live overlay when this snapshot and the table diverge.
