Highest Crime Rates
Wards with the highest crime rates include downtown areas and some suburban neighborhoods. Police attribute these numbers to a combination of property crimes, theft, and occasional violent incidents. Community leaders are calling for increased patrols and social services.
Lowest Crime Rates
Conversely, several suburban and rural wards reported the lowest crime rates. These areas benefit from strong community watch programs and lower population density. Residents express satisfaction with safety but remain vigilant.
