How this is worked out: weeks run Monday to Sunday, months and years by the calendar, in Albuquerque time, and a month is compared with the one just before it, count against count. A kind of call or neighborhood is ranked only with enough calls to make its percent mean something. Names are the city's dispatch descriptions. Neighborhoods are the city's recognized neighborhood associations, which cover only part of the city and overlap, so a call inside two counts in both. These are calls, not crimes or arrests, and calls with no location are left out, as on the rankings page. Nothing here is estimated: a month the record doesn't cover in full gets no figures.
