Interesting data. The graph at the top shows a trend downwards of all non-traffic calls (albeit it’s only a slight trend), and that’s good. On the other hand, a bunch of specific crimes seem to have been massively exacerbated by the pandemic.
What interests me is that Springfield seems to be pretty flat on most measures, though their numbers are all pretty high for the size of the city.

Interesting data thank you for posting!
