Note: This data is subject to change due to late reporting.
*NC: Please note that the formula for the increase or decrease in
percentage is (N-S)/S with N representing the new number and S being the old
or starting number. Because the rules of mathematics do not allow division
by zero, if S equals zero, the percentage change obviously cannot be
calculated and therefore is classified as "NC" (Not Calculable).
Percentage changes involving small figures should be interpreted with caution.
The Index Crime "Larceny/Theft" includes both "Theft"
and "Theft from Auto."
