Local context
No local context notes are live for Downtown today.
Plain facts from verified locals and the operator, published by the operator; never written by the model. Read them beside the numbers, not as part of them. How this layer works.
Read this before quoting a number
Police releases cover about one in a hundred incidents the Police Services Board counts; business and partner reports fill part of the gap.
Counts are of incidents police made public, placed on the hundred-block; they are not a count of all crime. Business and partner totals appear once three contributors exist. Local context is editorial, published by the operator. How much is captured and how the record is built.
