What this data can and can’t tell you
- Solved cases. A cleared case is one police consider solved. Whether anyone is convicted is a separate matter the rate doesn’t follow.
- How serious, not how safe. Statistics Canada, which publishes the index, attaches a caution: “The CSI is not an indicator of overall safety and should be interpreted in the broader community context.” The number weighs each reported crime by its seriousness before dividing by residents.
- City-wide figures. Without open access to Calgary’s community statistics, the figures here are the city’s, not Windsor Park’s own.
- Reading the number. Statistics Canada set the national index at 100 for 2006; every figure here is read against that.
