We have ranked the figures by the number of reports per 1,000 residents. If those two neighbourhoods were equal, we took into account the overall number for the neighbourhood.

The figures are based on where the incidents occurred, not where they were reported from. The photos are for illustrative purposes only and figures do not refer to any individual buildings or streets.
